Abstract: This study presents a comparative assessment of nine parameterized methods to estimate Linke turbidity (TL) in the five Köppen–Geiger climate zones. The evaluation is intensified by simulating all TL values into a global horizontal irradiance (GHI) model, called the Hammer model. The results found that atmospheric turbidity on the Korean Peninsula varies per season. The atmosphere tends to be more transparent in fall and winter, with lower turbidity. Meanwhile, the turbidity consistently rises in spring and peaks and summer, indicating a significant decline in atmospheric transparency.
