Abstract: The calculation of atmospheric transmission functions for infrared spectral lines having a pressure-broadened line shape is extended to include the case where the fractional concentration of the radiating gas varies with ...

Abstract: The model of the stratosphere proposed by Strong and Plass assumed that the spectral lines had the Lorentz shape. Actually the center of the line shifts to a lower frequency by an amount proportional to the pressure, and ...

Abstract: The upward and downward flux at various levels in the atmosphere and ocean is calculated by a Monte Carlo method which includes all orders of multiple scattering. A realistic model of the atmosphere-ocean system is used. ...

Abstract: The upward and downward radiance is calculated for a realistic model of the atmosphere-ocean system by a Monte Carlo method. All known processes are taken into account which affect the solar photons, including scattering ...

Abstract: The equations for radiative transfer are integrated exactly for a band of spectral lines which do not overlap and for an Elsasser band. The result of the two-fold integration of the absorption over frequency and over the ...

Abstract: The radiance and polarization of the earth's atmosphere with haze and clouds has been calculated for a realistic model which includes Rayleigh scattering from the atmospheric molecules, Mie scattering from aerosols which ...

Abstract: The degree and direction of polarization, the ellipticity, and the radiance of the radiation at various levels in the atmosphere and ocean are calculated by a Monte Carlo method which includes all orders of multiple ...

Abstract: The radiance and color of the twilight sky are calculated for single scattered radiation with the use of spherical symmetric models of the earth's atmosphere. Spherical geometry is used throughout the calculations with no ...
