tau0o3

skysim.transmission.tau0o3(lam)[source]

Calculate zenith optical depth of ozone absorption.

The main features are the Huggins band in the near-UV and the broad Chappuis bands around 600nm. See Section 2 and Fig.2 of Noll 2012 for details.

Narrow asorption features are resampled to the requested wavelength grid using a flux-conserving algorithm.

Parameters
lamfloat or array

Wavelength in nanometers.

Returns
float or array

Zenith optical depth of molecular absorption.
