Aerosol optical depth in Northern Jordan
The depletion of the solar beam in northern Jordan is investigated during the two summer periods of 1990 and 1991. This paper discusses the effect of atmospheric constituents on the solar beam with the emphasis on the effect of aerosol optical depth. It is shown that aerosol optical depth at JUST va...
