I seem to recall 10% more irradiance for each 6k feet elevation.

I can't seem to find anything, I have a project at 12k' in Tibet and need some ball park numbers for now (we'll take on site readings later). I've had Everest climbing teams I've outfitted claim very noticable increase at 15k, but these guys are deprived of oxygen and can't think straight!
