About this document

Understanding Electromagnetic Radiation by AnaStairs is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Here are the key points about atmospheric transmittance: - Gases in the atmosphere like oxygen, carbon dioxide, water vapor absorb specific wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation through molecular absorption. This reduces the amount of radiation transmitted through the atmosphere. - Particles in the atmosphere like dust, smoke, water droplets scatter radiation. Shorter wavelengths like UV are scattered more than longer wavelengths like infrared. This scattering also reduces transmittance. - Transmitta
