A Study of the Atmospheric Turbidity Coefficients in Jazan Atmosphere, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Abstract: This study investigates atmospheric turbidity in Jazan, Saudi Arabia, using data on global, diffuse, and direct solar radiation collected between 1983 and 2005. The analysis incorporates Linke turbidity factor, Angstrom turbidity coefficient, clearness index, and diffuse solar fraction. Findings indicate that Jazan experiences higher atmospheric turbidity during summer, attributed to seasonal dust storms, while maintaining a clearer atmosphere in other months. The study's results contribute to understanding the region's atmospheric conditions and their implications on solar energy applications.
Keywords: Atmospheric turbidity, solar radiation, clearness index, Linke turbidity factor, air pollution
