Recent developments in the inversion by the method of relaxationThe relaxation method for inverse solution of the full radiative transfer equation is generalized to solve for all the atmospheric parameters that appear in the integrand as functions or functionals, without any a priori information about the expected solution. Illustrations are presented using the 7.5 micron CH4 band for determining temperature profiles in the Jovian atmosphere, and the 6.3 micron band for determining the water vapor mixing ratio in the earth's atmosphere.
