The Night-sky at the Calar Alto Observatory Ii: the Sky at the near Infrared
We present the characterization of additional properties of the night-sky at the Calar Alto observatory, following the study started in Sánchez et al. (2007), hereafter Paper I. We focus here on the night sky-brightness at the near-infrared, the telescope seeing, and the fraction of useful time at the observatory. For this study we have collected a large dataset comprising 7311 near-infrared im...
متن کاملThe Night-sky at the Calar Alto Observatory
We present a characterization of the main properties of the night-sky at the Calar Alto observatory for the time period between 2004 and 2007. We use optical spectrophotometric data, photometric calibrated images taken in moonless observing periods, together with the observing conditions regularly monitored at the observatory, such as atmospheric extinction and seeing. We derive, for the first ...
متن کاملBringing the night sky closer: discoveries in the data deluge
hroughout history, astronomers have been accustomed to data falling from the sky. But our relatively newfound ability to store the sky's data in " clouds " offers us fascinating new ways to access, distribute, use, and analyze data, both in research and in education. Here we consider three interrelated questions: (1) What trends have we seen, and will soon see, in the growth of image and data c...
متن کاملStability of the Nine Sky Quality Meters in the Dutch Night Sky Brightness Monitoring Network
In the context of monitoring abundance of artificial light at night, the year-to-year stability of Sky Quality Meters (SQMs) is investigated by analysing intercalibrations derived from two measurement campaigns that were held in 2011 and 2012. An intercalibration comprises a light sensitivity factor and an offset for each SQM. The campaigns were concerned with monitoring measurements, each last...
متن کاملThe new world atlas of artificial night sky brightness
Artificial lights raise night sky luminance, creating the most visible effect of light pollution-artificial skyglow. Despite the increasing interest among scientists in fields such as ecology, astronomy, health care, and land-use planning, light pollution lacks a current quantification of its magnitude on a global scale. To overcome this, we present the world atlas of artificial sky luminance, ...
