Abstract

Using a tunable source of monochromatic radiation (BWO) and a pneumatic detector, the field and laboratory investigations have been performed to obtain spectral distribution of atmospheric water vapor absorption coefficient in transparent windows centered at the wavelengths of 0.88 and 0.73 mm.

The measurements have not found any spectral features mentioned repeatedly in the literature, besides the usually observed excess of the measured absorption above the calculated one for water vapor monomers.
