Remote Sensing in the 15 µm CO<sub>2</sub> Band: Key Concepts and Implications for the Heat Balance of Mesosphere and Thermosphere

Remote Sensing in the 15 µm CO<sub>2</sub> Band: Key Concepts and Implications for the Heat Balance of Mesosphere and Thermosphere

We investigated the algorithms and physical models currently applied to remote sensing of the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) using space-based observations of the CO<sub>2</sub> 15 µm emission. We show that the measured 15 µm radiation constrains the population of excited CO<...
