% Computes the heat absorbed due to earth radiation.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
q = EarthRad( r, alpha, w )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Inputs
------
r (1,:) Distance from center of the planet in radii
alpha (1,1) Absorptivity (should be specific for infrared)
w (1,1) Flux (uses 250 w/m^2 if no input)
Cloudy sky is 140 w/m^2, with no clouds = 320 w/m^2
-------
Outputs
-------
q (1,:) Absorbed flux per unit area
