The new world atlas of artificial night sky brightness
Fabio Falchi, Pierantonio Cinzano, Dan Duriscoe +6
Artificial lights raise night sky luminance, creating the most visible effect of light pollution-artificial skyglow. Despite the increasing interest among scientists in fields such…
The artificial sky brightness in Europe derived from DMSP satellite data
P. Cinzano, F. Falchi, C. D. Elvidge +1
We present the map of the artificial sky brightness in Europe in V band with a resolution of approximately 1 km. The aim is to understand the state of night sky pollution in Europe…
Mapping the artificial sky brightness in Europe from DMSP satellite measurements: the situation of the night sky in Italy in the last quarter of century
P. Cinzano, F. Falchi, C. D. Elvidge +1
We present a project to map the artificial sky brightness in Europe in the main astronomical photometrical bands with a resolution better than 3 km. The aim is to understand the st…
