The model depicts aerosol optical thickness, a measure of the amount of light that the aerosols scatter and absorb, and a proxy for the number of particles in the air.
Light pollution is made worse with air pollution, as the small particles that float in the air serve to scatter and reflect the light, compounding the problem.
而空气污染又使光污染问题愈发严重,因为漂浮在空气中的小颗粒通过散射和反射光线,加剧了这一问题。

In this paper, the relation of cloudy sky luminance with particle scatter and air mass is discussed by using the results of atmospheric and geometrical optics.
