CSTARS Radiative Transfer Model Implementations 

Efficient C reimplementation of various well-known radiative transfer
models as well as their inversion. This reimplementation obeys a
necessity for modularization and flexibility. 

The model and inversion programs currently available are:

    Model               Inversion
    --------------      ------------------
    rtm.prospect        rtm.inv_prospect
    rtm.sailh           rtm.inv_sailh
    rtm.prospect_sailh  rtm.inv_prospect_sailh
    rtm.prospect_infi   rtm.inv_prospect_infi
    rtm.liberty         rtm.inv_liberty
    rtm.geosail         (not implemented yet)

Installing RTM
--------------

    Prerequisite:
        Besides a standard build environment (make, C compiler, etc)
        on your system, the only external prerequisite is the F2C 
        Fortran to C translator Library.  See README.f2c.txt
    
    Typical steps to download, compile and install the RTM models are:
        Download rtm-XXXX.tar.gz from
           http://casil.ucdavis.edu/project/showfiles.php?group_id=40
        where XXXX is the most recent release number. Then:
            tar zxf rtm-XXXX.tar.gz
            cd rtm-XXXX
            ./configure
            make
            make install

    All program names are given the prefix ``rtm.'' on installation.
    The --program-prefix configure option can be used to change this
    prefix. 
    
    By default, /usr/local/ is used as base directory to find the F2C
    header (include/f2c.h) and library (lib/libf2c.a). To specify a
    different location, use the option --with-f2c=dir where dir is the
    directory to use as prefix. 
    
    See INSTALL for more configure options.
