Thank you, Richard and Stefan, Yes, that is the difference that I am getting at 183 GHz.
Does the scattering calculation methods in ARTS even now accept only RJBT units ? Are Planck units going to be enabled for scattering solvers anytime soon?

Hi, Just by numbers: RJBT at 300 K 183 GHz is 3.086705214957283e-15 Planck at 300 K 183 GHz is 3.0417434132511342e-15 This means you expect a 1.5 % difference, or about 4.5 K between them. With hope, //Richard Den tis 20 apr. 2021 kl 13:22 skrev Thomas,Renish <renish.tho...@colostate.edu<mailto:renish.tho...@colostate.edu>>: Hi Stephan, I am using Rayleigh jeans. As I need to activate cloud box in some instances. I understand that RJBT instead of Planck can cause a dip in the brightness temperatures. Is this the only factor that can cause a bias, or does pressure levels, lat/lon grid resolution also cause a bias?

Dear Renish, do you use Planck or Rayleigh-Jeans brightness temperature? For Planck, you should indeed approach the ambient temperature if you go low enough.
