All BLIRB8 inputs (except a savefile name) can be selected using the mouse. VISUAL was developed to provide a user-friendly graphical user interface for building the input file and graphically displaying the BLIRB8 output flux fields in an interactive mode. These records are complex and require each parameter field to contain a valid input. BLIRB8 inputs are in a file comprised of several records containing the necessary input parameters. This physical space may contain several regions of aerosol concentration (clouds, smoke, fog, etc.), ground level areas of varying albedos, flares, and a searchlight. The eight-stream extension of the Boundary Layer Illumination Radiation Balance Model (BLIRB8) provides direct and diffuse radiative fluxes at each grid point in a physical BLIRB8 space.
