Line parameters of water vapor have been obtained in the 13 000-9250 cm-1 spectral region. The measurements were performed with a high resolution Fourier transform spectrometer coupled to long-path multiple reflection cells. Emphasis was put on the determination of accurate parameters for the weak lines, most of which have not been previously reported in the literature. A total of 7061 lines have been studied. Their positions and intensities have been determined, and for many of analyzed lines, self- and air-broadening coefficients, as well as pressure-induced shifts were obtained. A preliminary analysis of the dependence of the broadenings and shifts, with vibrational and rotational quantum numbers is given. The discussion is focused on the comparison between our measured parameters and those listed in the HITRAN database. A very good agreement is reported for the positions and intensities. It is suggested that the construction of a comprehensive and complete dataset for water vapor in this spectral region requires the merging of independent measurements, and of calculated values of broadenings and shifts for weak and blended lines.
