Hi All, I had a question about how ARTS treats integrated water path ( IWP ).
My simulation setup: I am trying to sense a cloud box , with the sensor looking forward. (i.e elevation 0 degrees). I am using ARTS with Atmlab. My questions: a). How to calculate IWP/LWP (which is an input for ARTS) for the case of horizontal sounding of an extended cloud. Or how to use droplet density as an input instead of IWP. b). Can i give IWP as an input for all elevations? Does the radiative transfer calculations in these cases behave properly for off zenith and off nadir look angles. As i believe LWP = TPW for the case of nadir-zenith sensing of an entire atmosphere. LWP (Liquid Water Path) TPW (Total Precipitable Water) Cheers, Renish
