fasim: Fitted annular simulations

In AlexCast/apsfs: Monte Carlo code for simulation of atmospheric Point Spread Functions and spatially-resolved Spherical Albedo Functions

Fitted annular simulations

Description

Contains the fitted coefficients of the atmospheric point spread functions (APSFs) simulated for the different standard aerosol models of the 6SV radiative transfer code: maritime (mar), continental (con) and urban (urb). Simulations were carried out without Rayleigh contribution, and with an aerosol scale height of 2 km. The APSF for Rayleigh alone (ray) is also available. Sensor was positioned at TOA, with nadir view angle and infinitesimal field of view. The fitted model can be expanded into a grid spatial representation with the function apsfs::predict_grid. The vertical optical thickness for all simulations was 0.5, but dependence on optical thickness is small. By construction, aerosol APSF have no pressure dependence. The fitted Rayleigh simulations include pressure dependence with limits of 1100 to 500 mbar. See ?apsfs::fit_annular for further details.
