SCRIBE 2 data analysis
Abstract
The data collected by the SCRIBE flight were analyzed. The flight history and the data obtained, centered at the 15 microns CO2 band, are summarized. The down looking spectra obtained with 0.2 cm-1 resolution produced no unusual features, while the horizontal looking spectra obtained with the same resolution figure yielded remarkable findings, a continuum background feature superimposed with the molecular feature and a large variation in the radiance level at 27000 to 28000 m altitude for both the molecular and the continuum feature.
