The article deals with the optimum choice of spectral region, in terms of information content and existing equipment, for acquiring data on atmospheric water content. Constraints on available method (range of heights, spectral intervals, sensitivity) are listed. The model of the atmosphere employed, channels for sounding, moisture profile calculations, and sounding equipment design and sensitivity are discussed. The procedure put forth for selecting channels for satellite soundings of water vapor content, theoretical analysis of the transport equation for the earth's atmosphere, and numerical calculations indicate the 20 to 50 micron spectral interval (water rotational band) is the optimum one, and Fourier spectrometers and Michelson interferometers are recommended as the preferred instruments.
