28Summary Model fits with the reality of April 10 th 2014 at 16:30 (PST) under clear – sky conditions over semi-arid Reno NV. Model: The noisy ratio from the UV-IR spectrometer is due to the fact that the light is completely filtered at the visible range. The inverse is true for the visible filtered spectrometer. Observations :

29Summary The ratio of diffuse to direct radiation in Reno fits between the models for urban and desert minimum at longer wavelength. UV-IR channel responds at shorter wavelength and follows the Desert Max and Urban models. Coarse mode respond to short wavelength range. Having two spectrometers is necessary to fully understand the aerosol content in the atmosphere especially in desert conditions where the effect of natural desert aerosols is not fully understood.
