What visual sign suggests higher concentrations of larger aerosols or humidity in the lower atmosphere when the Sun is high?
Answer
The sky remains a persistent, pale white or washed-out light blue
If the sky remains a persistent, pale white or washed-out light blue even when the Sun is high, it suggests higher concentrations of larger aerosols or humidity in the lower atmosphere.
