Longwave Optical Depth

Longwave Optical Depth is a dimensionless radiative transfer parameter that quantifies the attenuation of longwave radiation through an atmospheric column due to absorption and scattering by greenhouse gases and aerosols, specifically distinguishing it from shortwave optical depth by its spectral sensitivity to terrestrial infrared emission.
