Relationship between atmospheric aerosol transmissivity and air pollution was analyzed using observed data in a large industrial city, Pusan, Korea. The atmospheric aerosol transmissivity predicted by method of present study in Pusan was assessed by the method of Yamamoto et al.(1968) in order to set up an empirical model to predict the transmissivity using the various meteorological parameters and air pollution. As a result, good correlation between these tow method re observed. Thus, it is possible to conclude that the parameterization of air pollution suggested by this study is another method to give reliable estimate of atmospheric aerosol transmissivity and direct solar irradiance in Pusan.
