Good Technical Paper about Atmospheric effects and how they affect seeing conditions

Hey everyone,
just went past the below article about atmospheric effects (extinction and seeing ) and how they affect seeing conditions and thought it was quiet interesting. Nothing new but it's good to go back and reflect on the science behind things from time to time

Regards,
Paul Fleifleh
