spcvrtc General Algorithm

  1. Initialize output fluxes.
  2. Loop over all g-points in each band.
  3. Set up toa direct beam and surface values (beam and diff).
  4. Compute clear-sky optical parameters, layer reflectance and transmittance.
    • Saving clear-sky quantities for later total-sky usage.
    • Delta scaling for clear-sky condition.
    • Perform general two-stream expressions:
      control parameters in module "physparam"
      iswmode - control flag for 2-stream transfer schemes
      = 1 delta-eddington (joseph et al., 1976)
      = 2 pifm (zdunkowski et al., 1980)
      = 3 discrete ordinates (liou, 1973)
    • Compute homogeneous reflectance and transmittance for both conservative scattering and non-conservative scattering.
    • Calculate direct beam transmittance. use exponential lookup table for transmittance, or expansion of exponential for low optical depth.
    • Calculate pre-delta-scaling clear and cloudy direct beam transmittance.
  5. Call vrtqdr(), to compute the upward and downward radiation fluxes.
  6. Compute upward and downward fluxes at levels.
  7. Compute surface downward beam/diffused flux components.
  8. Compute total sky optical parameters, layer reflectance and transmittance.
    • Set up toa direct beam and surface values (beam and diff).
    • Perform delta scaling for total-sky condition.
    • Perform general two-stream expressions:
      control parameters in module "physparam"
      iswmode - control flag for 2-stream transfer schemes
      = 1 delta-eddington (joseph et al., 1976)

      = 3 discrete ordinates (liou, 1973)
    • Compute homogeneous reflectance and transmittance for both conservative and non-conservative scattering.
    • Calculate pre-delta-scaling clear and cloudy direct beam transmittance.
  9. Call vrtqdr(), to compute the upward and downward radiation fluxes.
  10. Compute upward and downward fluxes at levels.
  11. Process and save outputs.
    • surface downward beam/diffused flux components
    • uv-b surface downward flux
    • surface downward beam/diffused flux components
    • uv-b surface downward flux
    • uv-b surface downward flux
    • surface downward beam/diffused flux components
