About

Python implementation of a radiative transfer simulation, which models the interaction of light with the Earth's atmosphere. Particularly focusing on the influence of CO2 concentration on the outgoing radiation spectrum. Forked and adapted from Science Etonnante's implementation.

Features

  • Simulates electromagnetic radiation propagation
  • CO2 absorption and emission modeling
  • Multiple atmospheric temperature models (Uniform, Simple, US1976)
  • Matplotlib visualizations at different CO2 concentrations
