Mapping the brightness and color of urban to rural skyglow with all-sky photometry

Andreas Jechow, Christopher C. M. Kyba, Franz Hölker

Artificial skyglow is a form of light pollution with wide ranging implications on the environment. The extent, intensity and color of skyglow depends on the artificial light source…

Tracking the dynamics of skyglow with differential photometry using a digital camera with fisheye lens

Andreas Jechow, Salvador J. Ribas, Ramon Canal-Domingo +3

Artificial skyglow is dynamic due to changing atmospheric conditions and the switching on and off of artificial lights throughout the night. Street lights as well as the ornamental…
