List of IR Cross-sections
The following table lists the molecules presently in the the HITRAN compilation that are in the form of infrared absorption cross-sections. For some of the molecules, there are ample temperature-pressure sets in the given spectral range to provide an ability to perform quasi-quantitative atmospheric simulations. |
