# Forest Light Environmental Simulator (FLiES) Radiative Transfer Model Look-Up Table (LUT) Implementation in Python

[![CI](https://github.com/gregory-halverson-jpl/FLiESLUT/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/gregory-halverson-jpl/FLiESLUT/actions/workflows/ci.yml)

This package is a look-up table emulator for the Forest Light Environmental Simulator (FLiES) model in Python. This model is used to estimate solar radiation for the Breathing Earth Systems Simulator (BESS) model used to estimate evapotranspiration (ET) and gross primary productivity (GPP) for the ECOsystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on Space Station (ECOSTRESS) and Surface Biology and Geology (SBG) thermal remote sensing missions.
