Specifications for Measurements

• type of measurements: FTIR
• Resolution: 1cm^-1 or higher
• Range: 400-4000 cm^-1
• concentrations: 10⁰,10^-1,10^-2,10^-3,10^-4, 10^-5, 10^-6, 10^-7 (dilutions should be made with a gas that does not have spectral lines in the 400-4000 cm^-1 range, eg. Argon)

Information to be supplied: beam path length, description of file names, equipment used.

More data is required for a comprehensive study of greenhouse warming and the terraforming of Mars. Any data is greatly appreciated.

All contributions will be acknowledged.

If you are able to make measurements of any of the gases indicated on the Main Page or any other super-greenhouse gases, please contact Chris McKay at NASA Ames Research Center.
