Workspace Method cloudbox_checkedCalc
Description
Checks consistency and validity of the cloudbox governing variables.
The following WSVs are treated: cloudbox_on, cloudbox_limits,
pnd_field, scat_data, scat_species, abs_species, particle_masses
particle_bulkprop_field, particle_bulkprop_names and wind_u/v/w_field.
If any of these variables is changed, then this method shall be
called again (no automatic check that this is fulfilled!).
The main checks are if the cloudbox limits are OK with respect to
the atmospheric dimensionality and the limits of the atmosphere,
and that the scattering element variables pnd_field and
scat_data match in size.
Default is to demand that there is a margin between the cloudbox
and the ends of latitide and longitude grids. Such margins are
required by MC and DOIT/3D, but are not needed for e.g. IBA.
If the margins not are a demand, set GIN demand_latlon_margin to 0.
Further checks on scat_data are performed in scat_data_checkedCalc
scat_species and particle_masses must either be empty or have a
size that matches the other data. If non-empty, some check of these
variables are performed.
If any test fails, there is an error. Otherwise, cloudbox_checked
is set to 1.
