The model was prepared as part of the activities of the Committee on Space Research (COSPAR) panel on new reference atmospheres. It will be published as 'The Mean COSPAR International Reference Atmosphere 1972.' The reference atmospheres aid in the design of aircraft, missiles and satellites. The Mean Atmosphere, provided for the altitude range 25 to 500 km, contains tables of temperature, density, and pressure for the whole range. Composition (major constituents and some minor constituents) is given for the range 75 to 500 km. The model represents mean annual and solar cycle conditions for latitudes near 30 degrees. (Author).

Data concerning the spatial and temporal inhomogenities of atmospheric density and composition and their implication concerning the atmospheric infrared radiance are reviewed. Preliminary estimates of the variability in the radiance are presented. In addition, the range of scale sizes from small-scale variations is also considered.
