% AIRS RTA "version 7" Dec02 maximum and minimum regression profile values % Scott Hannon, 31 March 2003 % % These are the max and min values from the 48 regression profiles % used to generate the fast transmittance coefficients. They indicate % the range over which the AIRS RTA was trained, and thus they should % approximately correspond to the range over which the RTA can be % expected to return reasonably accurate output. The RTA may provide % wildly inaccurate output for profiles well outside the specified limits. % % Note: gas ratio max and min values are layer Profile value divided % by layer Reference value. Layers are sorted by increasing % pressure (ie the top of the atmosphere is layer 1). % % L T max T min H2O ratio max & min O3 ratio max & min CO ratio max & min CH4 ratio max & min %-- ------ ------
