Because transit measurements are relative measurements stellar spectra cancels out — in the first order approximation: the difference of a spectrum taken before transit and during transit will provide the transmission spectrum of the exoplanet atmosphere.

In reality, the stellar spectrum does not cancel out in transmission spectroscopy, because the first - order approximation described above confusingly equates two different light sources: the stellar disk (the spectrum of which is observed before the transit) and the actual light source, which is just a very small fraction of the stellar disk — the projection of the transit chord onto the stellar photosphere (see figure).

After proposing the sum of strategy types equates to 1 in order to classify an environment of plant species (Furze et al., 2013b), we were able to produce the generalized approximation of the proportions of plant strategy types present in each of the 7 plant strategy environments (Furze, Zhu, Qiao and Hill, 2013c).

Though deliberately obnoxious, there is actually a fair amount of satisfaction to be had in thwarting Calendula's multitude of ways to prevent you from playing it, since rather than being true bugs and defects, they are merely approximations of such and thus require ample amounts of meta - guile in order to be conquered.

Otherwise, an approximation can be made by using, in place of BTc0i and ΔBTc0, three corresponding values of upward / downward / net fluxes per unit area, two values for frequencies ν1 and ν2 on either side of the band near the centroids of the areas on the graph for the band - widening effect (works unless there are temporary saturations leaving positive and negative areas, in which case more different values for different frequencies would work better) to multiply by b * BW1 and b * BW2, respectively, to find the band - widenning effect, and one value for the peak frequency ν0, to multiply by something on the order of b * 1/2 * (BW1 + BW2) to find the band center contribution.

Ultimately, it would be nice to see followup forward modeling studies which attempt to use all potentially relevant variables, rather than the simplified model form we use (which is generally justified at treeline — but perhaps only to first order approximation, i.e. some of the details of changing hydrology and solar insolatino might still matter in these environments.).

I had suggested that as an approximation that one could subtract the average increase from the earlier period which represents one expression of temperature increase caused by natural variation from the later period where the increase is augmented by Anthropogenic CO2 in order to get some idea of what one might attribute to natural variation and how much to CO2.

The reference state (zeroth order approximation) corresponds to the exact solution in the pure planar Fourier flow, which holds for arbitrary values of the thermal gradient.

This graph uses some rough approximations to obtain an order of magnitude figure for the importance of the polar ice and snow field to Earth's energy budget.
