Abstract: It is noted that remote sensing by submillimeter-wave heterodyne spectroscopy can provide measurements for studying global change and processes in the Earth's atmosphere. The characteristics of stratospheric submillimeter spectra are discussed, and the planned submillimeter Microwave Limb Sounder experiment for the Earth Observing System is briefly considered. >
