Abstract
The climate of the thermosphere is controlled in part by cooling to space driven by infrared radiation, primarily from nitric oxide (NO, 5.3μm)and carbon dioxide (CO2, 15μm). The Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry (SABER) instrument on the ThermosphereIonosphere-Mesosphere Energetics and Dynamics (TIMED) satellite measures the vertical distribution of infrared radiation emitted by these species (and others).
