Satellite-based atmospheric characterization for sites of interest in millimeter and sub-millimeter astronomy

Open Access

Table 5

Transmittance values at 230 and 345 GHz for all five of the sites of interest.

	APEX	APEX (Instrument approx.)	LHATPRO	LHATPRO (Instrument approx.)	VALLE	LCO	GARS
Transmittance at 230 (GHz)	0.941	0.954	0.863	0.888	0.870	0.809	0.525
Transmittance at 345 (GHz)	0.809	0.854	0.59	0.656	0.609	0.467	0.101

Notes. The values were obtained using interpolated MERRA-2 atmospheric values of ozone, temperature, and specific humidity through the am software.
