Scientific paper

A new algorithm for calculating astronomical refraction in spherically-layered Earth atmosphere based on results of measurements of meteorological parameters in the observing point is investigated. As a numerical experiment with 125 meteorological sounding profiles shows, the new method allows to determine a refraction angle with the accuracy 4-100 times as large as Pulkovo refraction tables for zenith angles z less than 80 deg give.
