Abstract:

The submicron aerosol, the attenuation of which in the visible spectral range depends on the air relative humidity, can cause significant overestimation of the negative temperature dependence of the water vapor continuum within 8–12 μm region.  This conclusion was drawn based on the experimental data obtained in the laboratory cell [1].
