Line mixing in infrared atmospheric spectraThe phenomenon of line mixing in IR vibration-rotation spectra and its impact on atmospheric transmission and radiative transfer is discussed. Laboratory spectra exhibiting line mixing in both Q-branch and R-branch spectra of CO2 are examined. Methods for the calculation of line mixing in atmospheric spectra are discussed, including methods for dealing with temperature dependencies. Observations of line mixing in both limb and nadir viewing atmospheric spectra are presented.
