FUTURE WORK IDEAS
Future Work• Assessment of Line Intensities
– Camborne • Completed; retrieved “a” are consistent with previous work
– Jungfraujoch• Work has began; will be fairly quick with confirmed water profiles. Initial results are quite
promising– Write up
• Already began writing this up as a paper....
• Absolute Calibration– Camborne
• On going work; need to think in some detail now what is causing difference between model and observations (line lists, continuum model, Kurucz , water profiles.........)
– Jungfraujoch• No Work Yet
