The Zugspitze radiative closure experiment for quantifying water vapor absorption over the terrestrial and solar infrared – Part 2: Accurate calibration of high spectral-resolution infrared measurements of surface solar radiation
Quantitative knowledge of water vapor absorption is crucial for accurate climate simulations. An open science question in this context concerns the strength of the water vapor continuum in the near infrared (NIR) at atmospheric temperatures, which is still to be quantified by measurements. This issu...
