libRadtran is a widely used software package for radiative transfer calculations. It allows one
to compute (polarized) radiances, irradiance, and actinic fluxes in the solar and thermal …

SBDART is a software tool that computes plane-parallel radiative transfer in clear and
cloudy conditions within the earth's atmosphere and at the surface. All important processes …

The libRadtran software package is a suite of tools for radiative transfer calculations in the
Earth's atmosphere. Its main tool is the uvspec program. It may be used to compute …

In June 2019 a stratospheric eruption occurred at Raikoke (48∘ N, 153∘ E). Satellite
observations show the injection of ash and SO 2 into the lower stratosphere and an early …

A number of atmospheric phenomena affect the propagation of light. This article reviews the
effects of clear-air turbulence as well as atmospheric turbidity on optical communications …

Biomass burning aerosols seasonally overlie the subtropical southeast Atlantic
stratocumulus deck. Previous modeling and observational studies have postulated a …

Cyprus plans to drastically increase the share of renewable energy sources from 13.9% in
2020 to 22.9% in 2030. Solar energy can play a key role in the effort to fulfil this goal. The …

Scattering in the longwave domain has been neglected in the first generation of radiative
codes and is still neglected in most current GCMs. Scattering in the longwave domain does …

Recent methods to map artificial night-sky brightness and stellar visibility across large
territories or their distribution over the entire sky at any site are based on computation of the …

We show that a fire plume injected into the lower stratosphere at high northern latitudes
during the Canadian wildfire event in August 2017 partly reached the tropics. The transport …
