Code 12.3 Semiempirical Emissivity Model for Rough Surface 

 This module computes the emissivity of a homogeneous medium with a rough surface, using the parametric model equations developed by Lawrence et al. (2013). Model is applicable to L-band only. Various parameters of the rough surface can be specified, such as the dielectric constant ϵ = ϵ' -j ϵ'', the rms height and the correlation length. The model is constrained to realistic surfaces with ( rms height / correlation length ) ≤ 0.25.
