Workspace Variable y

The measurement vector.

This vector holds radiances averaged in frequency and spatially,
and can contain many spectra appended. That is, this WSV matches
directly the y-vector in the formalism by C.D. Rodgers.

The polarisation, frequency, position and line-of-sight associated
with each element in y are given by y_pol, y_f, y_pos and
y_los. For monochromatic pencil beam radiances, data are sorted
in the following way, from the innermost to the outermost loop
    Stokes
    Frequency
    LOS inside the measurement block

With sensor response included, the order can be differ. As output
of yActive, the order will also be different.

Usage: Output from radiative transfer calculations considering
       sensor response.

Unit:  Undefined. Possibilities include: K, W/(m^2 Hz sr) and
        optical thickness.

Group: Vector
