If you are interested in a user-friendly program for radiative transfer calculations, uvspec is the software you want to become familiar with. A description of uvspec is provided in the first part of the manual. Examples of its use, including various input files and correspo… text/html 2010-04-29T10:38:10+02:00 http://www.libradtran.org/doku.php?id=contact&rev=1272530290&do=diff In case of questions about libRadtran, or to report a bug, or to offer help please contact one of the following. Please, if you want to contact more than one of them, use either <developers@libradtran.org> or send only one Email including all addresses you want to contact. That way, each adressee at least knows that the other ones were asked as well. We repeatedly had the case that users sent the same Email separately to all developers and received up to four replies independently.

Get the distribution Here is the most recent version 1.5-beta from February 2, 2010 (“groundhog release”). The new version has several new features compared to the last release 1.4 from December 24, 2008, see [Newsletter 11]. text/html 2010-07-26T11:42:19+02:00 http://www.libradtran.org/doku.php?id=faq&rev=1280137339&do=diff How serious are serious differences reported by "make check"? They are usually not as serious as it sounds. We haven't had a case where libRadtran worked on one computer and produced really wrong results on another. However, radiative transfer equation solvers like disort are numerical methods which are affected by the limited numerical precions of processors, and these differ from processor to processor and sometimes even from compiler to compiler. Usually, large differences occur for small n… text/html 2010-08-17T17:38:34+02:00 http://www.libradtran.org/doku.php?id=known_bugs&rev=1282059514&do=diff libRadtran doesn't compile Solution: When compiling uvspec, please make sure that you have all required compilers and tools installed, see Download. For the newer versions of Linux, some of the standard tools are no longer installed by default (as modern users don't want to fiddle around with such ugly things as compilers etc). One particular example is Flex - The Fast Lexical Analyzer.
