Design, construction and calibration of single channel sun-photometer for study of aerosols
Aerosols are tiny liquid or solid particles suspended in the air have a strong influence on air quality, human health and climate change. Sun-photometer is a tool for measuring the optical and physical characteristics of aerosols by using sunlight at various wavelengths from the Earth surface. In th...

description | Aerosols are tiny liquid or solid particles suspended in the air have a strong influence on air quality, human health and climate change. Sun-photometer is a tool for measuring the optical and physical characteristics of aerosols by using sunlight at various wavelengths from the Earth surface. In this paper, the design, construction, and calibration of a single channel sun-photometer is presented. Aerosols optical depth is amount of suspended particles in the Earth atmosphere was measured by the sun-photometer on September 5, 2016, and the results are in good agreement with the measurements of a CE 318-2 sun-photometer manufactured by the French CIMEL company. |
