However, it's not clear if it acts the same on urban mesopic conditions since both green and blue could be confused with may sources of light built with that exact purpose: to be seen at night. Also, the disruptive factors are very important since some wavelengths lose visibility by replicating themselves (for example, if you see white light in fog conditions, you'll see a huge amount of diffuse light, while blue will be more concentrated in a source) | |
