Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Atmospheric visibility is indeed calculated using established standard meteorological formulas, most notably the Koschmieder model relating visibility to the atmospheric extinction coefficient.

The analysis

The retrieved literature consistently discusses standard meteorological formulas and models—such as the Koschmieder model and extinction coefficient calculations—used to determine atmospheric visibility. No papers refute the premise that specific formulas are used; rather, they explore refinements, limitations, or modern computational alternatives to these classical formulas.
