pyrt.optical_depth

pyrt.optical_depth(q_profile, column_density, extinction_ratio, column_integrated_od)

Make the optical depth in each model layer.

Parameters:

• q_profile (np.ndarray) – 1-dimensional array of volumetric mixing ratios.

• column_density (np.ndarray) – 1-dimensional array of column densities [\(\frac{\text{particles}}{m^2}\)].

• extinction_ratio (np.ndarray) – 2-dimensional array of extinction ratios.

• column_integrated_od (float) – The column integrated optical depth.

Returns:

2-dimensional array of the optical depth in each model layer at each wavelength.

Return type:

np.ndarray
