内容記述 | An approach to determining cloud optical depth is presented which utilizes a multiple-field-of-view sun photometer, along with modeled behavior of transmittance ratios as a function of the field of view, to infer the optical depth. The data used in the analysis were collected during the FIRE Stratocumulus IFO, which took place from July 15 to 17, 1987. Values which were taken within an hour of local solar noon are presented and compared with the values computed for mu sub 0 = 1.0. The zenith angle for the measurements was between 11 and 18 deg. It is found that this method of inferring the optical depth indicates most clouds with optical depths within these limits. The measured curves have a slightly different shape than do the modeled ratios. |
