Spectra of M dwarfs are rich in atomic and
molecular lines. These spectra provide such basic
information as Teff (or
radius), log g (or mass), surface chemical
composition, and something more (e.g. activity) if
properly interpreted. It is recognized, however,
that spectra of M dwarfs are already dimmed by the
dust formed in their photospheres (Tsuji et al.
1996a) and this effect, which has been overlooked
until recently, should be taken into account in
any interpretation and analysis of the spectra of
very low mass objects (VLMOs) including late M
dwarfs and brown dwarfs.
