Abstract:
This paper presents a description of the block of calculation of the intrinsic radiation of
the Earth atmosphere in the IR range, which is developed for the model of the General
circulation of the lower and middle atmosphere. This block uses a new parametrization of
molecular absorption in the frequency range from 10 to 2000 cm$^{-1}$
in the height range
from the Earth's surface to 76 km. The algorithm for constructing this parametrization
takes into account the change in the gas composition of the atmosphere with height and
has a number of other advantages. The results of the reference calculations of the field of
natural radiation of the earth's atmosphere are compared with the results of calculations
performed using parametrization, and it is shown that the presented parametrization has
good accuracy in the lower and middle atmosphere in the absence of clouds, and in the
presence of cloud layers with a large optical thickness.
Keywords:general circulation model, parameterization of molecular absorption, atmospheric radiation, calculation of radiation field.
