  2. Sunrise equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunrise_equation

    A plot of hours of daylight as a function of the date for changing latitudes. This plot was created using the simple sunrise equation, approximating the sun as a single point and does not take into account effects caused by the atmosphere or the diameter of the Sun.

  3. Twilight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twilight

    Geoscience Australia "Sunrise and sunset times" Compute twilight times. An Excel workbook with VBA functions for twilight (dawn and dusk), sunrise, solar noon, sunset, and solar position (azimuth and elevation) by Greg Pelletier, translated from NOAA's online calculator for sunrise/sunset; Time and Date to find the current state of the sun in a ...

  4. Sunrise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunrise

    Time of sunrise in 2008 for Libreville, Gabon. Near the equator, the variation of the time of sunrise is mainly governed by the variation of the equation of time. See here for the sunrise chart of a different location. The timing of sunrise varies throughout the year and is also affected by the viewer's latitude and longitude, altitude, and ...

No longer freeware, this suite aims to be more user friendly than competitors. Framework – for MS Windows. Historical office suite still available and supported. It includes a spreadsheet.

  6. Equation of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_time

    The United States Naval Observatory states "the Equation of Time is the difference apparent solar time minus mean solar time", i.e. if the sun is ahead of the clock the sign is positive, and if the clock is ahead of the sun the sign is negative. [6] [7] The equation of time is shown in the upper graph above for a period of slightly more than a ...

  7. Solar zenith angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_zenith_angle

    For example, the solar elevation angle is: 90° at the subsolar point, which occurs, for example, at the equator on a day of equinox at solar noon; near 0° at the sunset or at the sunrise; between −90° and 0° during the night (midnight) An exact calculation is given in position of the Sun. Other approximations exist elsewhere. [6]

  8. Solar azimuth angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_azimuth_angle

    The following formulas assume the north-clockwise convention. The solar azimuth angle can be calculated to a good approximation with the following formula, however angles should be interpreted with care because the inverse sine, i.e. x = sin −1 y or x = arcsin y, has multiple solutions, only one of which will be correct.

  9. Spreadsheet - Wikipedia

    Example of a spreadsheet holding data about a group of audio tracks. A spreadsheet is a computer application for computation, organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form. [1] [2] [3] Spreadsheets were developed as computerized analogs of paper accounting worksheets. [4] The program operates on data entered in cells of a table.
