Langley Calibration of Sun Photometer at Kinabalu Park (1574 M a.s.l.) using PDM Algorithm and statistical filter

This paper reports the use of improved Langley plot for LED-type sun photometer calibration at four wavelengths 440, 500, 670 and 870 nm. The Langley plot is improved by series filtration using Perez-Dumortier (PDM) algorithm and statistical filter. Data was collected at a mid-altitude site, Kinabal...
