Remote assessment of gases
Abstract
Remote assessment of gases by spectroscopic means is presented. The 'windows' of the atmosphere are described. Electromagnetic signatures of gaseous molecules from 1 Mc to 4000 A are computed and the methods to compute are explained. Passive and active methods which have been successful are described. Lasers and solid state detectors which might be useful are surveyed.
