Two-stream Radiative Transfer

Two-Stream Radiative Transfer is a radiative transfer approximation method that belongs to the class of discrete ordinate techniques and is distinguished by its simplification of angular integration into two opposing streams—upward and downward—thereby enabling efficient computation of radiation fluxes in atmospheric models while balancing accuracy and computational cost.
