Heat capacity has nothing to do with the absorption bands of a gas. Nitrogen, for example, absorbs most strongly in the UV. CO2, in the infrared. O2 is in the UV.

Round and round we go... Water absorbs even more in the infrared. Regardless the temperature measures the overall heat in the system. Do you think that absorbed UV energy isn't converted to heat as well?
