Pre-release 0.6.2

This is the first release of the model. It is a pre-release in the sense that the model is not quite ready for publication, but is in a state where it can be easily used by a non-developer of the code.

Documentation can be found at https://nichollsh.github.io/AGNI/ outlining how to install and run the model.

Current capabilities include:

• Simple configuration and setup on GNU/Linux and MacOS machines
• Performing radiative transfer through SOCRATES
• Calculating other energy transport processes, such as convection and phase change with diffusion.
• Storing atmospheric properties in memory, such as composition and temperature
• Reading input from configuration files
• Writing output to NetCDF and CSV files
• Creating plots
• Interfacing with Jupyter notebooks
• Solving for atmospheric radiative-convective equilibrium using a non-linear method with linesearch
• Documentation created with Documenter.jl
• Comparison with literature data
• Unit and physical tests
• Advanced thermodynamics with temperature-dependent properties (e.g. heat capacity)
• Simple tutorials for new users

While the code is open source on GitHub, it is made available under a proprietary license until it is published.
