In the IR spectral
range, typically
emission spectra are
analysed
In some cases also
absorption spectra of
the solar radiation
are measured

Infrared emission spectrum of the Earth atmosphere in the mid-infrared region (700–2250 cm−1) calculated
with the radiative transfer model LBLRTM for mid-latitude conditions (summer, unpolluted scenario). The
most important absorption bands of different trace gases (O3, CO, CO2, H2O, CH4, N2O) are indicated.

The observed Intensity is:

if only emission
is observed
Optical depth
-emission and absorption plays a role
-typically no simple inversion (like in the UV/vis)
is possible
-complex radiative transfer modelling has to be
applied

Natural line width:
It can be ignored compared to collision (pressure) broadening at lower
altitudes and Doppler (thermal motion) broadening at higher altitudes.
Collision (pressure) broadening:
-collission between molecules shortens lifetimes for specific states
-for increasing pressure towards lower altitudes the probability to be scattered
increases
-the line shape for pressure broadening can be approximated by a Lorentzian
line shape:
(Δν: line width for pressure broadening)
The Lorentian line shpae can be retrievd from the *van Vleck and Weisskopf*
line shape assuming that the duration of a collision is much shorter than the
time between two collisions (impact-approximation)

Lorentian line width:
Typical value: 2.5 MHz
p0: 1hPa
T0: 300K
Typical value: 0.75
The Lorentian line width is temperature dependent
Lecture on atmospheric remote sensing
[email protected]
Doppler broadening
-is caused by thermal motion of molecules. The Maxwell distribution depends
on temperature and the molecular mass:
According to the Doppler-effect, the line width becomes:
With line width:
By convolution of the Lorentian and Doppler line shape one gets the so called
Voigt line shape:

Schematic illustration of the
instrumental setup used. The
solar/lunar tracker follows the
course of the sun/moon and feeds a
parallel light beam into the
spectrometer. In the interferometer
the light beam is splitted into the
two rays by the beamsplitter.
Several detectors are mounted
which allow to record the whole
spectral region from the IR at
700/cm (14 µm) up to the UV at
33000/cm (300 nm).

Panel (a) shows the spectrally fully resolved total optical densities for a vertical path for CH4 (V = 3.6 · 1019molec/cm-2) and H2O (V =
6.5 · 1022molec/cm-2) while panel (b) depicts the vertical optical densities of CH4 for different height layers in the atmosphere. The
expected total slant optical density (here for A=2.41) is now shown in panel c). Shown is the high resolution optical density and the
convolved one that is seen by the instrument, i.e. convolved with I (here: SCIAMACHY slit function in channel 8: Gaussian,
FWHM=0.24nm). Starting from this linearisation point, the effect of a change in the vertical column density of CH4 of +1018molec/cm2
(i.e. 3% of the total column) in different height layers is shown in panel (d). Panel (e) shows the derivatives (also with respect to CH4
perturbations) for different linearisation points, viz. for different water vapour columns (1.3, 6.5 and 32.5 1022molec/cm-2, respectively).
The optical densities in (a) and (b) are not convolved.

Typical modelled and measured differential slant optical densities (DSOD) in the CO2 (a)
and CH4 (b) fit windows are shown. In panel (a), CO2 contributes most to the depicted total
DSOD, while there are also very weak absorptions by water vapour. In panel (b),
absorptions by CO2 and H2O marginally add to the strong CH4 signal. In both panels, all
species are fitted simultaneously and make up the total DSOD using a gaussian slit function
with 1.35 nm full width at half maximum.

THE (Cryogenic Limb Array Etalon Spectrometer ) CLAES INSTRUMENT
CLAES infers the amounts of gases in the stratosphere from the measurement of the unique infrared emission
features by combining a telescope with an infrared spectrometer and solid state detectors, and cryogenically
cooling the whole instrument below 150 Kelvin to minimise its own thermal infrared emissions. The
spectrometer operates over the wavelength range 3.5 to 12.9 microns.Spectroscopy is performed by tilt
scanning one of the four solid etalons between one or more of the nine blocking filters. The nine filters are
centered at 2843, 1897, 1605, 1257, 925, 879, 843, 792 and 780 cm-1.
