Description of SHARC, the Strategic High-altitude Radiance Code / R.D. Sharma [and others]

The Strategic High-Altitude Radiance Code (SHARC) is a new computer code that calculates atmospheric radiation and transmittance for paths from 60 to 300 km altitude in the 2-40 microns spectral region. It models radiation due to NLTE (Non-Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium) molecular emissions. This i...
