“…where (1) X = Cvo(Av) + log10W (2) W = (g-)n(T )ThU In Eq. (1) Cy ,(Au) are the spectral parameters and are specified at every five wavenumbers in the N20 band, W is called the equivalent absorber amount, U is the path averaged absorber amount in (atm -cm), p is the mass density of N70 in the atmosphere, L is the atmospheric path length in which the transmittance is to be calculated, Av = 5 cm-1 and v is the wavenumber in cm-i.…”

A comparison of the double exponential model and the equivalent absorption coefficient model as applied to the atmospheric gas nitrous oxide N20 is made for low (20 cm-1) and high (5 cm-1) spectral resolutions. Both models are shown to represent low resolution N20 transmittance well. The double exponential model is shown to represent high resolution transmittance better than the equivalent absorption coefficient model does.Comparisons of the double exponential model at low and high resolutions using the same transmittance data base are made. It is shown that virtually no more error occurs when the double exponential model is used to model high resolution N20 transmittance as occurs when the double exponential model is used to represent low resolution transmittance.
