v1.2

• pydisort now internally enforces Kirchoff's law of thermal radiation for the isotropic internal source (its emissivity is set to 1 - omega_arr). Consequently, emissivity no longer needs to be factored into s_poly_coeffs and subroutines.generate_s_poly_coeffs has been changed accordingly.
• Streamlined code in PythonicDISORT. This should not cause any noticeable change in functionality or performance.

Full Changelog: v1.1...v1.2

v1.1

• Fixed bug wherein having a layer with no scattering inbetween two scattering layers will cause miscalculations
• Implemented zeroing of tiny single-scattering albedo $\omega$ values or tiny Legendre coefficients -- it will still be better for users to zero such values themselves
• General improvements to documentation including a new warning that using an excessive number of streams $\text{NQuad} \gtrsim 300$ will cause some quadrature angles to be extremely glancing ($\mu \sim 0$) and the computed intensity at those angles may be inaccurate

Full Changelog: v1.0.3...v1.1

v1.0.3

What's Changed

• Upgraded the BDRF_Fourier_modes argument in pydisort such that the list can now contain functions and scalars
• Upgraded subroutines.cache_BDRF_Fourier_modes and updated documentation accordingly
• Bump actions/download-artifact from 4.1.8 to 4.1.9 by @dependabot in #31
• Bump pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish from 1.12.2 to 1.12.4 by @dependabot in #30

Full Changelog: v1.0.1...v1.0.3 (v1.0.2 skipped)

v1.0.1

The restriction on the phase function Legendre coefficients Leg_coeffs_all is corrected from $[0, 1]$ to $[-1, 1]$.

Full Changelog: v1.0.0...v1.0.1

v1.0.0

v1.0.0 is finally out! We added subroutines to facilitate the modeling of longwave radiative transfer. In addition, we implemented almost all of DISORT's longwave radiative transfer tests (tests 6 and 7 in particular) and tested PythonicDISORT on the anisotropic Hapke BDRF.

We are now confident that PythonicDISORT matches DISORT in functionality.

Full Changelog: v0.9.5...v1.0.0

v0.9.5

What's Changed

• Fixed bug in computing the antiderivative of u0
• Improved PythonicDISORT.subroutines.interpolate such that it can now interpolate u0
• Changed the default of use_banded_solver_NLayers from 13 to 10 (the associated git commit message states "10 to 13" but that is a typo)
• Bump pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish from 1.10.1 to 1.10.3 by @dependabot in #22
• Bump pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish from 1.10.3 to 1.12.2 by @dependabot in #27

Full Changelog: v0.9.3...v0.9.5 (v0.9.4 skipped)

v0.9.3

v0.9.3 is identical to v0.9.2 except that two sets of values that were used for debugging are no longer being returned.

Full Changelog: v0.9.2...v0.9.3

v0.9.2

• Fixed bug in direct beam multilayer solver.
• Changed assert-based input checks to if-statements that raise ValueError.
• Added return_tau_arr argument to every output function (tau is the optical depth and tau_arr demarcates the layers in the atmosphere)
• Improved and corrected documentation.
• Added explanatory preamble to each PyTest.

Full Changelog: v0.9.1...v0.9.2

v0.9.1

Made some optimizations suggested by Richard Larsson. Corrected a bug in the is_antiderivative_wrt_tau feature of the multilayer TMS correction.
