This is the CLASSIC foundational paper that sets up modern "heat balance" calculations for the atm. Surprisingly it is found at:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/34962513/Elsasser1942
In PDF form.
Page 23 is VERY interesting as Dr. Elsasser explains why in his "General Radiation Chart", used to calculate daily heat up and cool down curves based on radio balloon measurements of temp, pressure and humidity at various altitudes, he excludes CO2 as a factor. I.e., because CO2 (for 0 to 30,000') is an EQUAL upflux and downflux agent.
Above 30,000' it is a cooling agent. (Upflux).
The physics have not changed.
I have yet to find an analytical derivation which obviates Dr. Elsasser's work.
