Behavioral responses to artificial skyglow vary in coastal invertebrate larvae.

Marine Environmental Research
Light influences the biology of coastal animals by cueing behavior and biological clocks. Over the last 150 years, artificial light has increasingly illuminated the nighttime sky.

Skyglow effects in UV and visible spectra: radiative fluxes.

Journal of Environmental Management, 2013
Several studies have tried to understand the mechanisms and effects of radiative transfer under different night-sky conditions. However, most of these studies are limited to the various effects of visible spectra. Nevertheless, the invisible parts of the electromagnetic spectrum can pose a more profound threat to nature. One visible threat is from what

Modeling the night sky brightness distribution via new SkyGlow Simulator

2016 IEEE Lighting Conference of the Visegrad Countries (Lumen V4), 2016
Regional/global increase of excessive artificial light currently is one of the most pressing environmental concerns in the public's eye. It is not surprise that a proper qualification and quantification of light pollution levels became important issue worldwide. The decisive effects of light sources and atmospheric environment on the diffuse light of a

SkyGlow Model Successfully Applied to the Evaluation of the Light Pollution over Tucson, U.S.

2018 VII. Lighting Conference of the Visegrad Countries (Lumen V4), 2018
The Slovak research team has developed a unique theoretical solution and an efficient software module for the calculation of the parameters of the light pollution in the dependence on current meteorological situation and the properties of light sources ...

Numerical research on the effects the skyglow could have in phytochromes and RQE photoreceptors of plants.

Journal of Environmental Management, 2018
The increase of artificial light at night has a terrible impact on organisms with nightlife patterns such as a migration, nutrition, reproduction and collective interaction. Plants are not free from this issue as they have life cycle events occurring not only yearly but also daily.

Estimation of Garstang emission function parameters from skyglow monitoring by all-sky camera

2016 IEEE Lighting Conference of the Visegrad Countries (Lumen V4), 2016
A knowledge of an emission function of gound-based light sources is crucial for skyglow modelling. In the case of complex light sources as cities, it is in practice impossible to specify accurately their emission characteristics. Therefore various semi-empirical functions determined by some suitably defined parameters are usually used for description ...

Atmospheric anomalies in the summer of 1908: Skyglow

Geomagnetism and Aeronomy, 2012
After the Tunguska catastrophe, the region of “white nights” extended southwards as far down as ∼42°N at some locations. Impressive sunsets, colored in all shades of the solar spectrum were observed in the territory of Europe and some parts of Asia from 47 to 60°N.
