The radiative transfer equation for a cloudless, plane-parallel atmosphere is solved using the successive-scattering iterative procedure of Dave and Gazdag in which the scattering phase function is expressed in a Fourier series. The model includes Rayleigh and Mie scattering along with absorption by aerosol, ozone, water vapor, carbon dioxide, and oxygen. The solar spectrum is divided into discrete spectral intervals (83 in the present model), and the vertical column is divided into up to 500 layers depending upon the optical thickness of the atmosphere. The direct solar flux and the upward and downward diffuse fluxes for each spectral interval at each level are computed taking into account all orders of scattering.
