A Proposed Update to the Solar Irradiance Spectrum Used in LOWTRAN and MODTRANThe calibrated upwelling radiance spectra measured by AVIRIS are increasingly being analyzed with radiative transfer codes. Analysis of AVIRIS data with the LOWTRAN and MODTRAN radiative transfer codes has led to indications of an error in the solar irradiance spectra used by these codes. This paper presents evidence for the error and a proposed update to the solar irradiance spectra used by LOWTRAN and MODTRAN.
