Discrete Ordinates Solver for the (1D) Radiative Transfer Equation in a single or multi-layer plane-parallel atmosphere. Coded entirely in Python 3. Based on Stamnes' FORTRAN DISORT (see references in the Jupyter Notebook) and has its main features.

This python notebook reformats a series of Hydrolight-generated m-files (radiative transfer outputs) into hdf5 files. This enables easier access to data for investigators, who can work with structured variables inside the hdf5 files rather than unweildy ascii files, which are difficult to utilize on a large scale.
