Code Name: ExtincCoef_IceCloud.m
Description: Code computes the extinction coefficient (scattering plus absorption) for an ice cloud at any frequency 0 < f < 70 GHz, temperature -50 °C < t < 0 °C, and cloud water content 0 < mv < 5 g/m3.
Input Variables:
t: | Temperature (°C) |
mv: | Cloud water content (g/m3) |
f: | Frequency (GHz) |
Output Products:
κe: | Ice cloud extinction coefficient (dB/km) |
Book Reference: Section 8-7.3, Eq. (8.72) and Eq. (8.43) for water.
