heal.abstract | Ground-based spectroradiometric measurements taken in the atmosphere of Athens during May 1995 have been used to investigate various atmospheric parameters. From the direct-beam irradiance measurements the spectral aerosol optical depths as well as the Angstrom parameters are derived using the least-squares method applied to measured spectral irradiance data. In this way the errors associated with the turbidity coefficient, beta, are found to be 0.0029 on average and with the wavelength exponent, alpha, 0.031. In this paper, a comparative study between the aerosol optical depth derived by the spectral direct-beam irradiance measurements and those estimated through the Angstrom's formula is made. The correlation coefficient between the measured and computed optical depth is higher than 0.93 in most cases, while their greatest differences take place at the shorter wavelengths. A further analysis of the above differences at 500 and 1000 nrn shows very low values, especially at 500 nm, indicating the accuracy of the fitting. The differences at 1000 mn are much higher due to uncertainties in the water-vapor optical depth determination. The errors in Angstrom parameters as well as in the Angstrom's formula fitting to the derived spectral aerosol optical depth depend strongly on atmospheric turbidity, reaching to higher values under low atmospheric turbidity conditions.
