| | 33 | |
| | 34 | === Major changes: === |
| | 35 | * '''Radiative transfer''' (PALM-4U): Radiative transfer model has been updated to version 3 (RTM 3.0). |
| | 36 | * A new discretization scheme for direct solar, diffuse solar, emitted and reflected radiation substantially enhances scalability, especially on large domains and domains with complex terrain, reduces memory demands, eliminates the need for limiting maximum raytracing distance and reduces discretization error between close surfaces. |
| | 37 | * A new raytracing algorithm improves performance of the preprocessing step and reduces the MPI overhead. |
| | 38 | * Absorption and emission of longwave radiation by plant canopy (interacting with surfaces and sky) is now simulated in addition to shortwave radiation. LW and SW plant canopy radiative exchange is also used as an input for plant canopy transpiration. |
