Journal ArticleDOI
Retrieval of temperature and moisture profiles from AMSU-A and AMSU-B measurements
TL;DR: The NOAA-15 weather satellite carries the Advanced Microwave Sounding Units-A and -B (AMSU-A, AMSU-B) which measure thermal emission from an atmospheric oxygen band, two water lines, and several window frequencies, and an iterated minimum-variance algorithm retrieves profiles of temperature and humidity in the atmosphere from this data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interference coefficients for overlapping oxygen lines in air
TL;DR: In this article, the interference coefficients were determined for the 5-mm wavelength oxygen lines broadened by air and solved by the Twomey-Tikhonov method, which minimizes a cost function, subject to the condition of constant measurement error variance.
Journal ArticleDOI
60-GHz oxygen band: precise broadening and central frequencies of fine-structure lines, absolute absorption profile at atmospheric pressure, and revision of mixing coefficients
TL;DR: In this paper, a spectrometer with radio-acoustic detection (RAD) was used for the measurement of central frequencies, self-broadening, and N 2 -broadening parameters of fine-structure transitions up to N ǫ = 27.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pressure broadening of rotational bands. I - A statistical theory
TL;DR: In this paper, Fano's relaxation operator is reduced to a scalar parameter which depends on the frequency displacement, and becomes symmetric when multiplied by the factor exp (h/2pi) (omega sub d)/2kT where omega sub d is the frequency displacements.
