iy

property Workspace.iy

Monochromatic pencil beam radiance spectrum.

This variable holds a single spectrum, with values corresponding to infinite frequency and spatial resolution (compare to y).

The variable is used to represent spectra at all positions of the propagation path and can e.g. temporarily hold radiation entering the atmosphere from space.

Usage: Used by radiative transfer methods.

Unit:

• For passive observations, as selected by iy_unit.

• For transmission calculations, same as for transmitted signal.

Dimensions: [ f_grid, stokes_dim ]
