Abstract
The remote sensing of objects in the solar system using infrared radiation is discussed. Theories of radiative transfer, molecular spectroscopy, and atmospheric physics are used to show how infrared spectra of model planetary atmospheres are calculated. Instrumental techniques are described and the effect of instruments on the measurement of the emerging radiation field is addressed. Techniques that allow the retrieval of atmospheric and surface parameters from observations are examined. All the planets except Pluto are studied, and many of the planetary satellites.
