The reported study is concerned with an analysis of the outgoing long-wave radiation. However, the seasonal and spatial characteristics of that component will be examined in somewhat greater detail than previously done for model verification. The calculation of the total outgoing long-wave radiation from window radiance is performed through a regression model developed from theoretical calculations. It is pointed out that zonal average profiles are quite useful in validating climate models which are functions of latitude only. Considering the 30N-30S region, it is found that seasonal variations in outgoing long-wave radiation are essentially dominated by variations in cloudiness. Poleward of the tropical regions in the northern and southern hemisphere seasonal distributions are quite different from each other.
