pyrex.ice_model.AntarcticIce.attenuation_length

AntarcticIce.attenuation_length(z, f)

Calculates attenuation lengths for given depths and frequencies.

Parameters

zarray_like

(Negative-valued) depths (m) in the ice.

farray_like

Frequencies (Hz) of the signal.

Returns

array_like

Attenuation lengths for the given parameters.

Notes

Based on code from Besson et al as reported by Matt Newcomb [1]. The shape of the output array is determined by the shapes of the input arrays. If both inputs are scalar, the output will be scalar. If one input is scalar and the other is a 1D array, the output will be a 1D array. If both inputs are 1D arrays, the output will be a 2D array where each row corresponds to a single depth and each column corresponds to a single frequency.
