The Angstrom turbidity coefficient (beta) and Linke turbidity factor (T-L) are used to study the atmospheric conditions in Wuhan, Central China, using measured direct solar radiation during 2010-2011 in this study. The results show that annual mean beta values generally increase from 0.28 in the morning to 0.35 at noon, and then decrease to 0.1 in the late afternoon during the day; annual mean T-L generally varies from 3 to 7 in Central China. Both turbidity coefficients have maximum values in spring and summer, while minimum values are observed in winter months. It also reveals that beta values show preponderance (52.8%) between 0.15 and 0.35, 78.1% of T-L values are between 3.3 and 7.7, which can be compared with other sites around the world. Relationship between turbidity coefficients and main meteorological parameters (humidity, temperature and wind direction) have been further investigated, it is discovered that the local aerosol concentrations, dust events in northern China and Southwest Monsoon from the Indian Ocean influences the beta values in the study area.
