Sumario:A comparison of the thermal emission fields of the Earth. Mars, Venus and Jupiter is presented. The calculation methods used take into account the real chemical composition of the atmosphere and the atmospheric conditions for the different planets studied. Thermal emission fields are obtained for clear, turbid and cloudy atmospheres. The calculations take into account sphericity, atmospheric refraction, selectivity of the downward radiation reflected by the underlying surface and clouds and selectivity of radiation scattered by aerosol for low and moderate resolutions, considering the effect of all gaseous components on radiation transfer. The results obtained and the conclusions drawn reveal the general regularities and specific features of the formation of the planets' thermal emission.
