Trust, but verify: Reducing artificial light emissions and monitoring compliance
Salvador Bará
In order to reduce light pollution we have to reduce the overall amount of artificial light emissions. This is a consequence of the basic rules governing the propagation of light i…
Diverging evolution of light pollution indicators: can the Globe at Night and VIIRS-DNB measurements be reconciled?
Salvador Bará, José J. Castro-Torres
The radiance of nighttime artificial lights measured by the VIIRS-DNB instrument on board the satellite Suomi-NPP increases at an average rate ~2.2 %/yr worldwide, whereas the arti…
Detecting changes in anthropogenic light emissions: limits due to atmospheric variability
Salvador Bará
Monitoring the evolution of the anthropogenic light emissions is a priority task in light pollution research. Among the complementary approaches that can be adopted to achieve this…
Quantifying the visual impact of wind farm lights on the nocturnal landscape
Salvador Bará, Raul C. Lima
Wind farm lights are a conspicuous feature in the nocturnal landscape. Their presence is a source of light pollution for residents and the environment, severely disrupting in some…
Aggregate Effects of Proliferating LEO Objects and Implications for Astronomical Data Lost in the Noise
John C. Barentine, Aparna Venkatesan, Jessica Heim +3
The rising population of artificial satellites and associated debris in low-altitude orbits is increasing the overall brightness of the night sky, threatening ground-based astronom…
Skyglow inside your eyes: intraocular scattering and artificial brightness of the night sky
Salvador Bará, Carmen Bao-Varela
The visual perception of the natural night sky in many places of the world is strongly disturbed by anthropogenic light. Part of this artificial light is scattered in the atmospher…
