A FORTRAN PROGRAM TO GENERATE TIME VS. SOLAR DEPRESSION TABLES

Abstract

A program is presented for the generation of tables of solar depression versus time on a particular day or period of days for any location. The input data required are two values for each day and the value of delta T for the year as taken from 'The American Ephemeris and Nautical Almanac,' the longitude and latitude of the location of interest, the maximum and minimum zenith angle desired. The program is suitable for or easily adapted to any first generation or newer computer capable of being programmed in Fortran.
