  We calculate the atmospheric structure of an accretion disk around a Kerr
black hole and obtain its X-ray spectrum, which exhibits prominent atomic
transitions under certain circumstances. The gravitational and Doppler
(red)shifts of the C V, C VI, O VII, O VIII, and Fe I-XXVI emission lines are
observable in active galaxies. We quantify the line emissivities as a function
of radius, to identify the effects of atmospheric structure, and to determine
the usefulness of these lines for probing the disk energetics. The line
emissivities do not always scale linearly with the incident radiative energy,
as in the case of Fe XXV and Fe XXVI. Our model incorporates photoionization
and thermal balance for the plasma, the hydrostatic approximation perpendicular
to the plane of the disk, and general relativistic tidal forces. We include
radiative recombination rates, fluorescence yields, Compton scattering, and
photoelectric opacities for the most abundant elements.
