The times of the rising and the setting of the upper solar limb as given in astronomical almanacs correct for this by using the more general equation cos ω ∘ = sin a − sin ϕ × sin δ cos ϕ × cos δ {\displaystyle \cos \omega _{\circ }={\dfrac {\sin a-\sin \phi \times \sin \delta }{\cos \phi \times \cos \delta }}}
