<p> Turbidity over Hamilton is determined using direct beam radiation in two manners for the summer period of 1975. These turbidities are then studies with respect to local regional and continental synoptic air masses.</p> <p> The results of the study show a high correlation between the actinometric and residual methods of determining direct beam radiation. This allows turbidity to be easily evaluated at radiation measurement sites.</p> <p> The most significant influence on the amount of particulate matter over Hamilton is the continental scale synoptic patterns.</p. / Thesis / Bachelor of Science (BSc)
