Owen's team found many spectral lines due to methane, which is easier to detect than nitrogen.

This is due to the fact that most visual light is emitted in one spectral line, the green 5007 Angstrom forbidden line of doubly ionized oxygen, [O III](see our Planetary Nebulae page).
HARPS has been enormously successful at detecting exoplanets using the radial velocity method, or measuring the gravitational tugs on stars by their planets by watching the stars» spectral lines «wobble» back and forth due to the Doppler effect.
The solar spectrum of the sun consists of a roughly black body like thermal continuum spectrum, peaking at around 0.5 microns wavelength (plotted on wavelength scale; not wave number), and overlaid with the Fraunhoffer lines of either bright atomic spectral lines, due to elements in the sun, or dark atomic absorption lines, due to absorption of elements in the solar outer atmosphere.
I understand that there is not a linear relationship between CO2 concentration and Earth's average temperature; that as CO2 concentration increases, the marginal effect on temperature decreases due to saturation of spectral lines.
I also understand to about the same extent, how those spectral lines can have a «fine structure» producing several lines instead of one; due to refinements first proposed by Arnold Sommerfeld and others.
