Sentences with phrase «individual absorption lines»

Not exact matches

A simple example is the radiation code — instead of using a line - by - line code which would resolve the absorption at over 10,000 individual wavelengths, a GCM generally uses a broad - band approximation (with 30 to 50 bands) which gives very close to the same results as a full calculation.

There are some bumps, and there is also some finer - scale texture associated with the individual lines that make up the absorption band.
