Spectral limb radiance data on CO2 nu2 and NO 5.3-micron emissions obtained in the Spectral Infrared Interferometric Telescope rocket experiment have been analyzed. Volumetric emission and kinetic temperature profiles have been obtained using linear least squares inversion procedures. The CO2 nu2 radiance profile is found to be similar to previous observations. The NO 5.3-micron emission is somewhat weaker than that typically measured; this is ascribed mainly to below-average thermospheric temperatures. Auroral enhancement of NO hot bands was not observable with the available sensitivity. An approximate thermospheric temperature profile derived from the NO band shape compares reasonably with the mass spectrometer/incoherent scatter 86 model.
