Abstract: Vertical atmospheric cross sections of upward, downward, and net infrared irradiance, infrared cooling, temperature, potential temperature, and water vapor through a jet stream have been constructed for Jan. 7 and 9, 1961, ...

Abstract: A multiple-parameter model has been formulated to estimate precipitable water profiles above the standard pressure levels from the satellite infrared spectrometer B (SIRS?B) radiation observations taken from the Nimbus 4 ...

Abstract: An attempt is made to resolve the difference in Nimbus II satellite-observed and calculated atmospheric radiances in the 6.7-?m water vapor band. Regression equations were calculated to relate the Nimbus II MRIR (medium ...
