Calculate light capture through the canopy by different cohorts #134

Open davidorme opened 11 months ago

davidorme commented 11 months ago

The canopy model calculated by #133 provides the information needed to calculate a light extinction profile through the canopy. Given the top of canopy downwelling radiation (and ignoring scattered light etc for now), this profile defines the light reaching the leaves within each cohort and hence can be used to provide absorbed irradiance for calculating the productivity of each cohort.

Depends: #133
