Scattering of infrared radiation by water clouds has been calculated from the Mie theory. Tables are presented for: the phase function and the degree of polarization for each degree of scattering angle; the volume cross sections for extinction, scattering, and absorption; and the albedo for single scattering. Three models are used, representing altostratus, nimbostratus, and stratocumulus clouds.
A preprototype (brassboard model) Infrared Temperature Profile Radiometer (ITPR) was tested on the NASA Convair-990 aircraft expedition during June 1970. The objectives of the airborne ITPR experiment were to obtain data to test various techniques planned for deriving temperature soundings from spaceborne ITPR measurements and to specify the transmission characteristics of the atmosphere and clouds. This paper describes the instrument and shows various results obtained from the airborne measurements.
