Towards a global map of the artificial all-sky brightness
Miroslav Kocifaj, Salvador Bará, Fabio Falchi
Modeling the hemispherical night sky brightness of anthropogenic origin is a demanding computational challenge, due to the intensive calculations required to produce all-sky maps w…
Estimating linear radiance indicators from the zenith night sky brightness: on the Posch ratio for natural and light polluted skies
Salvador Bará, Xabier Pérez-Couto, Fabio Falchi +2
Estimating the horizontal irradiance from measurements of the zenith night sky radiance is a useful operation for basic and applied studies in observatory site assessment, atmosphe…
The proliferation of space objects is a rapidly increasing source of artificial night sky brightness
Miroslav Kocifaj, Frantisek Kundracik, John C. Barentine +1
The population of artificial satellites and space debris orbiting the Earth imposes non-negligible constraints on both space operations and ground-based optical and radio astronomy…
Nighttime monitoring of the aerosol content of the lower atmosphere by differential photometry of the anthropogenic skyglow
Miroslav Kocifaj, Salvador Bará
Nighttime monitoring of the aerosol content of the lower atmosphere is a challenging task, because appropriate reference natural light sources are lacking. Here we show that the an…
Recovering the city street lighting fraction from skyglow measurements in a large-scale municipal dimming experiment
John C. Barentine, František Kundracik, Miroslav Kocifaj +7
Anthropogenic skyglow dominates views of the natural night sky in most urban settings, and the associated emission of artificial light at night (ALAN) into the environment of citie…
Aerosol characterization using satellite remote sensing of light pollution sources at night
Miroslav Kocifaj, Salvador Bará
A demanding challenge in atmospheric research is the night-time characterization of aerosols using passive techniques, that is, by extracting information from scattered light that…
