pyrtlib.rt_equation.RTEquation.cloudy_absorption#

static RTEquation.cloudy_absorption(t: ndarray, denl: ndarray, deni: ndarray, frq: ndarray) → Tuple[ndarray, ndarray]#

Multiplies cloud density profiles by a given fraction and computes the corresponding cloud liquid and ice absorption profiles, using Rosenkranz’s cloud liquid absorption and ice absorption by [Westwater-1972].

Parameters:

t (numpy.ndarray) – Temperature profile (k).
denl (numpy.ndarray) – Liquid density profile (\(g/m^3\)).
deni (numpy.ndarray) – Ice density profile (\(g/m^3\)).
frq (numpy.ndarray) – Frequency array (GHz).

Returns:

aliq: Liquid absorption profile (np/km)
aice: Ice absorption profile (np/km)

Return type:

Tuple[numpy.ndarray, numpy.ndarray]
