A.d.i. Radiative transfer of atmospheric CO2
|
Both infrared and near infrared radiative fluxes associated with
CO2 are calculated by using the Goody narrow band model
(cf., Goody and Young, 1989).
By using this band model, the temperature profile from 10 to 15 km,
which is corresponds to the tropopause region of the dust-free
Martian atmosphere, can be calculated precisely.
In calculating the infrared radiative flux, only the CO2 15
μm band is taken into consideration.
The upward and downward infrared radiative fluxes
() and the infrared radiative heating rate
per unit mass are calculated as follows.

When calculating the near infrared solar radiative flux, the
CO2 4.3 μm, 2.7 μm, and 2.0 μm bands are
considered.
The near infrared solar radiative flux and the near
infrared radiative heating rate per unit mass
are calculated as follows.

The transmission function averaged over in the near

wavelength region, except for the effective path length
