Abstract
Atmospheric index of refraction has been measured from ground level to 5000 feet using the Deam telemetering refractometer which permitted accurate spectral analysis of these data. The results of the analysis show a wide variation in the mean slope and intensity of the spectra. Some of the spectra are presented and their characteristics discussed.
