Abstract: The improved database of HNO3 spectroscopic parameters in the 600-950 cm(-1) spectral region presented in [Gomez L, Tran H, Perrin A, Gamache RR, Laraia A, Orphal J, et al. Some improvements of the HNO3 spectroscopic parameters in the spectral region from 600 to 950 cm(-1). JQSRT 2008, in press] is tested by comparisons between calculations and atmospheric remotely sensed absorption and emission spectra. The line parameters in the 11.3 mu m region are validated using ground-based Fourier transform solar absorption measurements, whereas those in the 13.1 mu m region are successfully tested using balloon-borne atmospheric emission spectra. In both regions, the quality of the line parameters and the consistency between band intensities is confirmed through comparisons with emission spectra collected by the satellite-borne WAS instrument.
