Thank you Freddy! This makes sense.
I tried with flat reflective surface and lambertian surface with absorption
only. I extended the 1D atmosphere to 3D so I can provide surface temperature
(set it to a really small value) but in theory since there is no scattering the
path that contributes is unchanged. I found that the flat reflective surface
result is correct but the lambertian one is much smaller than the expected pi
ratio. I tried to print ppath and I found los changing quite a lot. I am
wondering if this is the expected behavior and maybe there is something about
the 3D setup I did not understand properly. I copied the main part of the code
below.
Thanks!

Hi Freddy,
Thank you so much and this is very helpful! Just to make sure I fully
understand how to use it in the code -- According to ARTS output, it seems I
need to provide the skin temperature as well. I noticed that in one provided
example it has "
ws.ArrayOfStringSet(ws.surface_props_names, ["Skin temperature"])
ws.Tensor3SetConstant(ws.surface_props_data, 1, nlat, nlon,
ws.t_field.value[0, 0, 0])"
I'm wondering if there is a simple way to do this for 1D.
so far you cannot use a 1d atmosphere for simulation with a direct source like
the sun because the atmosphere dimension and (radiative transfer) geometry are
coupled in ARTS. Since you have a zenith and an azimuth dependency for
simulation with a direct source, you have to use a 3d atmosphere in ARTS as
simulation of 1d atmospheres have only zenith dependency in ARTS.
Also, is it possible to just not include surface emission?
No, but you can set the surface temperature to a small value greter than 0 K.
This would have a similar effect.
Cheers,
Freddy
