H2OAbsModel.h2o_continuum_mwl24(frq: ndarray, vx: ndarray) ndarray#

H2O self-continuum absorption normalized to the squared water vapor pressure (1/cm)/mbar**2 Based on the known measurements meta-analysis and theoretical calculations

Parameters:
  • frq (np.ndarray) – Frequency (GHz)

  • vx (np.ndarray) – Theta (adim) - (normalised temperature 300/t(K))

Returns:

self-continuum term ((1/cm)/mbar**2), multiply by pvap**2 * 1.E5 to get Np/km

Return type:

np.ndarray
