Abstract
The paper describes the results related to variations in precipitable water vapor at the peak Terskol site. Applying MPM Liebe model and MOLIERE model and using JPL and HITRAN configurations, we estimated optical thickness of the atmospheric column above peak Terskol for 100, 150 and 225 GHz.
