THE VERTICAL DISTRIBUTION OF ATMOSPHERIC OZONE BY METHODS OF INFRA-RED SPECTROGRAPHY AND RELATED PROBLEM OF THE ATMOSPHERIC CONTINUUM

Abstract

High resolution (205/cm) observations of atmospheric emission in and just outside the 9.6 micron ozone band have been made over 2 yrs near London. They sh w (1) that continuum absorption is increased above that due to water vap r by (low-level) haze and, (2) that vertical distribution of ozone as inferred are subject to error from continuum variation and from uncertainty in the ozone trans ission function.
