OPT Flag

RFM Flags: Optical Depth Spectra

25MAR24

Enabled
Create spectral files files of optical depth χ (=-ln(transmittance))

Disabled
No optical depth spectra written

Restrictions
Incompatible with AVG, FOV, ILS and TAB Flags.

Notes
  1. Incompatible with the convolution flags since spectral or spatial convolution of optical depth is not a physically meaningful quantity (and if you think that's what you really want, you are probably wrong!). Convolution of absorption (ABS Flag), =1-exp(-χ), for small χ, is the nearest equivalent.

  2. See RFM Outputs for default filename(s).
