Vertical Sounding Capabilities With High Spectral Resolution Atmospheric Radiation Measurements-A Demonstration with the High resolution Interferometer Sounder (HIS)

  • Conference paper
High Spectral Resolution Infrared Remote Sensing for Earth’s Weather and Climate Studies

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASII,volume 9))

Abstract

This paper provides one example application of groundbased and aircraft Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) measurements to the diagnosis of significant atmospheric structure. This capability is relevant to the development of future space and groundbased high vertical resolution sounding instruments.
