There are 48 "myp#.op" profile text files. Each file contains data for 44 atmospheric gases. The gases include all the gases found in HITRAN with significant absoption between 600-3000 cm-1, as well as about a dozen non-HITRAN gases for which there is cross-section absorption data to augment HITRAN. The profiles are slab-layer; integrated column density and layer-average temperature. (See "pres_lev.txt" for the 101 pressure level boundaries that define the 100 AIRS layers.) Any line beginning with a "!" in the first column is a comment line. The first non-comment line is a total number of gases times the number of layers. 44 gases * 100 layers = 4400. The other 4400 non-comment lines contain the following eight columns of data: ---------------------------------------------------------------- column | data type | units -------|-------------------------------|------------------------ 1 | gas ID number | uses HITRAN ID numbers 2 | layer COLUMN DENISITY | kilomoles per cm^2 3 | layer average TEMPERATURE | Kelvin 4 | CHANGE in TEMP. across layer | Kelvin 5 | layer average total PRESSURE | atmospheres 6 | CHANGE in PRESS. across layer | atmospheres 7 | layer average PARTIAL PRESSURE| atmospheres 8 | layer average ALTITUDE | kilometers ----------------------------------------------------------------
