Water-vapor measures, Mt. Lemmon area

Daytime atmospheric water-vapor measures were continued for Mt. Lemmon, the Catalina Observatory, and Tucson. As before (LPL Comm. No. 158), the three sets are closely related in terms of their altitude differences, with the average empirically-determined scale-height value, 2.3 km. During the winter and spring of 1971 observations were made for more than 90% of the days. The measures are listed in tables and for comparison, the 1969-70 data published in LPL Communication No. 158 are given. The averages for the stations are also shown.

Water-vapor measures - Mt. Lemmon area

Daytime atmospheric water-vapor measures were continued for Mt. Lemmon, the Catalina Observatory, and Tucson. As before (Lunar and Planetary Laboratory Communications, No. 158), the three sets are closely related in terms of their altitude differences, with the average empirically-determined scale-height value, 2.3 km. During the winter and spring of 1971 observations were made for more than 90% of the days. The measures are tabulated and reduced to Mt. Lemmon. The calibration was continued to higher values by means of atmospheric radiosonde data.

Arizona-NASA Atlas of the Infrared Solar Spectrum. X.

Second and last set of the B-spectrometer records, concluding the series of the Arizona-NASA Infrared Solar Spectrum Atlas. The value of the presented series lies primarily in serving as reference to high-altitude planetary spectra taken with similar resolution, 6-10,000. The wavelength interval covered is 13350-34100 A.
