Creates a look-up table of scattering properties.

The table produced largely follows the format used in RTTOV-SCATT for its “hydrotables”. The table is returned as a GriddedField4, with dimensions (in order):

1. Scattering property

2. Frequency (equals WSV f_grid)

3. Temperature (equals GIN T_grid)

4. Particle content [kg/m3] (equals GIN wc_grid)

Four scattering properties are calculated. They are (in order)

1. Extinction [m-1]

2. Single scattering albedo [-]

3. Asymmetry parameter [-]

4. Radar reflectivity [m2]
