Reads atmospheric data from a scenario.

An atmospheric scenario includes the following data for each position (pressure, latitude, longitude) in the atmosphere:

  1. temperature field

  2. the corresponding altitude field

  3. vmr fields for the absorption species

The vmr fields read are governed by the species given in abs_species. Beside gaseous species, these can also contain purely absorbing particulate matter. In the latter case the profiles are supposed to provide the mass content (unit kg/m3) for clouds and precipitation rate (unit kg/m2/s) for precipitation instead of the vmr.

The data is stored in different files. This methods reads all files and creates the variables t_field_raw, z_field_raw and vmr_field_raw. nlte_field_raw is set to empty.

Files in a scenarios should be named matching the pattern of: basename.speciesname.xml (for temperature and altitude the expected ‘speciesname’ are ‘t’ and’z’, respectivly). The files can be anywhere, but they must all be in the same directory, selected by ‘basename’. The files are chosen by the species name. If you have more than one tag group for the same species, the same profile will be used.
