Abstract: | The availability of accurate spectroscopic data and improved knowledge of continuum absorption characteristics has required a further detailed study of i.r. radiative transfer. A sophisticated radiative transfer scheme based upon the Mayer-Goody random band model is developed and the derived transmissivities for H2O, CO2 and O3 are calibrated against laboratory measurements. This calibrated scheme is used to assess the effects on calculated heating/cooling rate profiles of introducing computational and spectroscopic economies. |
