TSSF: an infrared radiance forward model
This page contains the source code for the infrared radiance model
used in this paper:
- Delanoe, J., and R. J. Hogan, 2008: A variational scheme
for retrieving ice cloud properties from combined radar, lidar and
infrared radiometer.
J. Geophys. Res., 113, D07204, doi:10.1029/2007JD009000: PDF
file
It uses the two-stream source function technique (hence the name TSSF)
introduced in this paper:
- Toon, O. B., C. P. McKay, T. P. Ackerman and K. Santhanam, 1989: Rapid
calculation of radiative heating rates and photodissociation rates in
inhomogeneous multiple scattering atmospheres. J. Geophys.
Res., 94, 16287-16301.
Source code
- tssf-0.2.tar.gz (12 May 2016): this
is a rewrite of the original RT librarby - it is more user friendly
but does not produce derivatives yet.
- rt_adept-1.0.tar.gz (20 January
2015); unfortunately there is no documentation available for this
code. This code has been converted from the original Delanoe &
Hogan RT library to be used with the Adept
automatic differentiation library, and that library will need to
be installed first.
If you use the code and have any comments, queries, requests or
bug-fixes then please
contact Robin Hogan. The
