21 This class implements opacity/atmospheric brightness temperature model
22 equivalent to the model available in MIRIAD. The actual math is a
23 convertion of the Fortran code written by Bob Sault for MIRIAD.
24 It implements a simple model of the atmosphere and Liebe's model (1985)
25 of the complex refractive index of air.
26
27 The model of the atmosphere is one with an exponential fall-off in
28 the water vapour content (scale height of 1540 m) and a temperature
29 lapse rate of 6.5 mK/m. Otherwise the atmosphere obeys the ideal gas
30 equation and hydrostatic equilibrium.
31
32 Note, the model includes atmospheric lines up to 800 GHz, but was not
33 rigorously tested above 100 GHz and for instruments located at
34 a significant elevation. For high-elevation sites it may be necessary to
35 adjust scale height and lapse rate.
36
37 Parameters:
38 temperature: air temperature at the observatory (K)
39 pressure: air pressure at the sea level if the observatory
40 elevation is set to non-zero value (note, by
41 default is set to 700m) or at the observatory
42 ground level if the elevation is set to 0. (The
43 value is in Pascals or hPa, default 101325 Pa
44 humidity: air humidity at the observatory (fractional),
45 default is 0.5
46 elevation: observatory elevation about sea level (in meters)

125 This can be any set of observations over a range of elevations,

127 Return a list of 'n' opacities for 'n' IFs. In case of averagepol
