Abstract

From direct radiation measurements performed in Valencia, the Angstrom's turbidity coefficient, β, was derived and compared with the models reported for Avignon, Ajaccio and Dhahran. The variation in the monthly average values of β at Valencia is of a similar trend to that of Avignon, Ajaccio and Dhahran. However, Valencia has shown higher values of β than Avignon and Ajaccio in summer due mainly to the effect of the air mass origin, the air temperature and the water vapour content.
