Broadband water vapor transmission functions for atmospheric IR flux computations

Transmission functions associated with water vapor molecular line and e-type absorption in the IR spectra regions are presented in the form of simple analytical functions and small tables, from which atmospheric IR fluxes and cooling rates can be easily computed. For typical clear atmospheres rangin...
