What's RSTAR6B.PACK |
Rstar6b is an updated version from rstar5c, which is a general package for simulating satellite signals at wavelengths between 0.17 and 1000 microns.
The updates from rstar5c are mainly the method of gas absorption. The absorption coefficients are already calculated using correlated k-distribution and tabulated in 26 pressure grids and 3 temperature grids. Now, we produce two tables (dlnw = 0.001 and 0.0005[cm-1], number of quadrature points = 2). This package contains: rstar6b.Readme : Readme of this package rstar6b : root file of rstar6b rstar6b.f : pre-compiled file using pcomp rstar6b-ps : root file of rstar6b for recompiling by pcomp for parameter size tuning pcomp. : Fortran precompiler for adjusting parameters data : Experiment parameter file for rstar6b out0 : Experiment output file from rstar6b MLATMD : AFGL standard atmospheric profile AERDB : Particle profile file KRNL.OUT : Mie kernel file A : Subroutine list in this package ABGASK : Subroutine to get absorption coefficients RSTR6B : Main subroutine for rstar6b SDP2 : Subroutine to interpole abs coef. for pressure TDOK2 : Subroutine to interpole abs coef. for temperature ckd.g.ch_2_1e3_big : normal k-distribution file for big endian machine ckd.g.ch_2_1e3_ltl : normal k-distribution file for little endian machine ckd.g.ch_2_2e3_big : finer k-distribution file for big endian machine ckd.g.ch_2_2e3_ltl : finer k-distribution file for little endian machine You should select normal or finer and indicate DINTVL in rstar6b. And You should choose one which is suitable for your computer system. This package is not contained precompiler for adjusting parameters.If you need, please download "rstar5" package. Rstar6b is contained a k-distribution table with HITRAN2004, but this version is now only treated major seven gases. (H2O, CO2, O3, N2O, CO, CH4, O2)N2 is needed for sattelite analyses, but not included. It is now validated these compilers: Intel compiler for Linux (ver. 7.1 and 9.1) Sun Fortran Compiler PGI Fortran Compiler This program is assumed the rercord length is in units of 1 byte. If your compiler is used that is in units of 4 bytes, you should attach a suitable compiler option. For example: (Intel compiler 8.0 and later) % ifort -O -r8 -assume byterecl rstar6b.f ###The k-distribution files are modified### There were some incorrect values in the k-distribution files which are provided before Aug 2008. If you downloaded before Aug 2008, please download again and get the correct files. FAQ |
