Infrared Radiation from the Atmosphere over the Arctic Ocean
The emission spectrum of the atmosphere over the Arctic Ocean was observed during a period when atmosphere and snow surface temperatures were about -40°C. The main contributions to the emission in the 5- to 21-micron range came from ozone and carbon dioxide, with water vapor playing a minor part.
