Abstract

Calculations of the atmospheric attenuation at wave numbers between 33 and 333 cm^-1 have been made for the water vapor continuum and air. This region covers the submillimeter to the infrared. Results are given for wave numbers 25, 300, 350, and 236 cm^-1. The 236 cm^-1 wave number was selected because it is a potential propagation window. The local lines are not included in the calculations.
