Technical Note: Improved total atmospheric water vapour amount determination from near-infrared filter measurements with sun photometers

In this work we explore the effect of the contribution of the solar spectrum to the recorded signal in wavelengths outside the typical 940-nm filter's bandwidth. We employ gaussian-shaped filters as well as actual filter transmission curves, mainly AERONET data, to study the implications im...
