In this study, it is investigated whether some modified Angström-type equations related to sunshine hours will be used to estimate of monthly average daily global solar radiation at Erzurum. Also, a third-order equation is developed for the calculation of the monthly average daily global solar radiation at Erzurum. The main bias error (MBE), the root mean square error (RMSE), and the t-statistic methods were used for evaluating the performance of the equations. The most suitable equation is found by compared with the values measured and obtained from the equation UR - https://dergipark.org.tr/tr/pub/isibted/issue//375508 L1 - https://dergipark.org.tr/tr/download/article-file/399836 ER -
