MODTRAN Atmospheric Model



MODTRAN atmospheric model for South Pole sky brightness (Jy arcsec^-2) between 2 and 10 micron. The model assumes an Antarctic temperature and pressure atmosphere profile, 200 micron of precipitable water vapor (PWV), and 100 km visibility in the `aerosol' layer. These conditions match the best 10% of our mid-IR measurements. From the JACARA web page: http://newt.phys.unsw.edu.au/~mgb/jacara.html
