Water Reflectance Models

Standalone ParkRuddick program:

• Park-Ruddick paper: PDF
• Instructions for use, includes example: text file
  • The model is valid for the range of wavelengths 400-2400 nm.
  • Example python script to run the program: run_park.py
• Files needed to run the program:
  • linux operating system, installation of python, and the python extensions NumPy and Cython.
  • Software Files needed (Python,Cython,C):
    • Main routine: water.pyx (contains "ParkRuddick" class in cython/python, others removed), and water.pxd (cython file needed by water.pyx)
    • cython and C modules needed by water.pyx: clut.pyx, and clut.pxd
  • Data Files needed:
    • aph_bricaud_1995.txt, and aph_bricaud_1998.txt, and astarmin_average_2015_SLSTR.txt, and morel_buiteveld_bsw.txt, and pope97.dat, and palmer74.dat, and raman_westberry13.txt, and AboveRrs_gCoef_w5.dat
  • Program needed to compile routine with cython: setup.py
• Example:
  • wav = [412., 443., 490., 510., 565., 670., 865., 1020.]
  • chl for 0.1, 1.0, 10.0, fa = fb = 1, wind speed = 5, sza=30, vza=20, raa=90
  • Plot: Rw vs. wav

Standalone MorelMaritorena program:

• Morel-Maritorena paper: PDF
• Instructions for use, includes example: text file
  • The model is valid for the range of wavelengths 350-2400 nm.
  • Example python script to run the program: run_morel.py
• Files needed to run the program:
  • linux operating system, installation of python, and the python extensions NumPy and Cython.
  • Software Files needed (Python,Cython,C):
    • Main routine: water2.pyx (contains "MorelMaritorena" class in cython/python, others removed), and water2.pxd (cython file needed by water2.pyx)
    • cython and C modules needed by water.pyx: clut.pyx, and clut.pxd, and fresnel.c
  • Data File needed:
    • morel_fq.dat
  • Program needed to compile routine with cython: setup.py
• Example:
  • wav = [412., 443., 490., 510., 565., 670., 865., 1020.]
  • chl for 0.1, 1.0, 10.0, bbs=0, wind speed = 5, sza=30, vza=20, raa=90
  • Plot: Rw vs. wav
