The most widely used equation for estimating visibility is the Koschmeider equation: where Lv is the visual range, the distance at which an average person can barely distinguish a dark object( such as a mountain or skyscraper ) against the sky. This equation is an approximation, based on an average set of atmospheric particles. Use the equation to estimate the visual range when the particulate concentration is equal to the annual average and to the maximum 24-hour NAAQS for PM10. In the Grand Canyon and the surrounding area, on clear days, one can easily see mountains 100 miles away. What is
