VLIDORT User's Guide

6. Appendices6.1 TablesThis section contains tables regarding: (1) input and output type structures; and (2) file-readcharacter strings found in the input configuration file 2p6_VLIDORT_ReadInput.cfg.Note. The user may notice a few variables that appear in the test drivers accompanyingVLIDORT, but which are not found in the following input and output type structure tables. Suchvariables should be assigned default values (that is, .FALSE. for logical variables and zero forinteger and floating-point variables) during VLIDORT’s normal use. These variables are part ofongoing development work with VLIDORT, and are flagged as such in VLIDORT’s input andoutput type structure files (in subdirectory “vlidort_def”) by the phrase “RT Solutions use only”.6.1.1. VLIDORT I/O type structuresThis section contains tables for VLIDORT input and output (I/O) type structures. Table 6.1 givesan overview of the categories of these I/O tables.Table 6.1: VLIDORT I/O type structure table guideTable PrefixInput/Output CategoryABasic fixed inputsBBasic modified inputsCBasic supplement inputsDBasic outputsELinearized fixed inputsFLinearized modified inputsGLinearized supplement inputsHLinearized outputs6.1.1.1.
