** WARNING #13 *********
\ Ground reflectance data for LIGHT_BROWN_LOAMY_SAND  
\ extend only from 0.4000 to 4.0001 m,
\ whereas the wavelength limits for this run are 0.2800 and 4.0000 m.
\ Consequently, reflectance is fixed at 0.061 below 0.4000 m and at 0.330 above 4.0001 m.

* GEOMETRY (half-angles) OF THE SIMULATED RADIOMETER (deg.):
   Slope =  0.00      Aperture =  2.90   Limit =  0.00

** WARNING #11*********
\ The radiometer's Slope and Limit angles are not provided.
\ Circumsolar calculations will therefore be performed for
\ an average geometry corresponding to the Aperture angle.
