This material is based on a set of five atmosphere models ranging from tropical to arctic and two aerosol models. A selected set of laser frequencies has been defined for which monochromatic tranmittance values have been given. For low resolution transmittance prediction, a series of charts have been drawn providing the capability for predicting transmittance at a resolution of 20 wave-numbers. Separate sections are included on scattered solar radiation, infrared emission, refractive effects, and attenuation by cloud and fog.
