FORECASTING REDUCED VISIBILITIES DUE TO ATMOSPHERIC AEROSOLS

Abstract

The problem of forecasting low visibilities has become less a problem of forecasting restrictions owing to condensed water droplets but rather has become more a problem of forecasting low visibilities owing to suspended particles. This paper discusses a formula and graph to calculate forecast visibility given initial conditions of visibility and relative humidity.
