A reliable model of molecular absorption in the considered wavelength range is of particular value as it may be used to relate atmospheric temperatures to radiant flux measurements made by artificial satellites. It appears that even in conditions when particle scattering can be neglected, absorption losses can be greater than is expected from present models. New measurements were made to study the remaining loss, or anomalous absorption. In the measurements particular attention was given to the temperature dependence of the anomalous component. The investigation was to test the hypothesis that anomalous absorption could be ascribed to an equilibrium concentration of water dimers in the atmosphere. It was found that this explanation cannot account for anomalous absorption in all conditions.
