[V]ectorized [s]imulated [m]easurements of the [a]tmosphere using [r]adiative [t]ransfer based on the [M]atrix [O]perator [M]ethod (vSmartMOM)(NPO-52333-1)

A full end-to-end modular software suite for radiative transfer and related atmospheric analysis. Develop a fast and accurate mechanism to simulate measurements (satellite, airborne, ground-based) of the Earth's atmosphere. This capability will represent the state of the art in our ability to: 1. estimate green house gas (mainly CO2) concentrations,2. their sinks by remotely sensing the health of forest canopies in terms of their vertical moisture distribution.
