Workspace Method iySurfaceRtpropCalc

Description

Applies surface_los, surface_rmatrix and surface_emission.

This method is designed to be part of iy_surface_agenda and
should be mandatory when using methods describing the surface
radiative transfer properties by surface_los, surface_rmatrix
and surface_emission. The task of this method is to apply these
three WSVs to obtain the upwelling radiation from the surface.
This upwelling radiation is the sum of surface emission and
reflected downwelling radiation. The later part is calculated
by calling iy_main_agenda. See further AUG.
