Abstract
The Antarctic Plateau is considered an ideal location for ground-based astronomy from the visible to the millimetric wavelength, thanks to both the low thermal emission and the high transparency of the atmosphere. The Microwave Limb Sounder instrument on board the AURA satellite, provides the vertical profiles of temperature, humidity and several gases present in atmosphere. These profiles can be used as input in radiative transfer model to simulate the atmospheric transmissivity at the different wavelengths.
