Observing and modelling the impact of arctic and tropical cirrus clouds on far-infrared radiance spectra

The work described in this thesis concerns the effect of cirrus clouds on far-infrared (FIR) radiance spectra. Though the importance of both FIR radiation and cirrus clouds to the Earth’s energy budget is well recognised, few high spectral resolution measurements have been made at FIR wavelengths to...
