please select wavelength: ( 1) 0535 nm ( 2) 0550 nm ( 3) 0659 nm ( 4) 0865 nm ( 5) 1600 nm ( 6) 3700 nm ?The next question is about the tilt angle:
please select tilt angle: ( 1) 00 ( 2) 01 ( 3) 30 ( 4) 90 ?Now, the desired type of size distribution must be given:
please decide which kind of size distribution you want to use: (1) Heymsfield and Platt (1984) (2) Liou (1989) (3) own number densities (4) read number densities from file "numin" ?
Here, one of 8 temperature dependent size distributions may be selected (the temperatures are in °C):
please select size distribution: (1): -20ø to -25 (2): -25ø to -30 (3): -30ø to -35 (4): -35ø to -40 (5): -40ø to -45 (6): -45ø to -50 (7): -50ø to -55 (8): -55ø to -60 ?These size distributions are restricted to sizes larger than 20 µm. Thus, the size intervals B and A are not used.
This is a parametrization of the above mentioned 8 size distributions with respect to cloud temperature. The desired temperature must be given:
please enter temperature between -20 and -60 C ?
Here, you can enter interactively your own number densities for all 8 intervals.
Same as above, but you enter the number densities in the file numin.
The results of this program are stored in the directory dat/sums. The last question asks for the name of the output files:
Please enter name of outputfile without path and extension (max. 10 char.)
This produces an output file, for instance dat/sums/test.cs.
