摘要：
We report an experimental comparison of three atmospheric transparency windows (800 nm, 1600 nm, and 10 mu m) upon scattering attenuation from haze and fog. Our results prove that a 10-mu m window is considerably better than the 1600 and 800 nm ones in dense and thick upslope fog conditions. (c) 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
