Abstract

From the author’s formula for the relative radiation as a function of temperature and humidity conditions in the atmosphere, a formula is deduced for the zenith distance variation of the effective radiation. This formula is compared with observational data and empirical formulae. Finally, the constancy of the representative zenith distance, for which the effective radiation equals the effective radiation integrated over the whole hemisphere, is investigated.
