Seasonal atmospheric extinction

Mean monochromatic extinction coefficients at various wavelengths at the Kottamia Observatory site have shown the existence of a seasonal variation of atmospheric extinction. The extinction of aerosol components with wavelengths during winter represents exceedingly good conditions. Spring gives the...

Description
Summary:Mean monochromatic extinction coefficients at various wavelengths at the Kottamia Observatory site have shown the existence of a seasonal variation of atmospheric extinction. The extinction of aerosol components with wavelengths during winter represents exceedingly good conditions. Spring gives the highest extinction because of aerosols.
