The airmass is an additional parameter which influences the transmission. The ETC allows six different values for the airmass: 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.0; 2.5
The Airmass (AM) scales the number of photons from the sky background with
(- 0.000278719 . AM . AM . AM - 0.0653841 . AM . AM + 1.11979 . AM - 0.0552132)
