A model is a computer program that produces meteorological information for future times at given locations and altitudes. Within any model is a set of equations, known as the primitive equations, used to predict the future state of the atmosphere. [37] These equations are initialized from the analysis data and rates of change are determined.
In such applications, radiative transfer codes are often called radiation parameterization. In these applications, the radiative transfer codes are used in forward sense, i.e. on the basis of known properties of the atmosphere, one calculates heating rates, radiative fluxes, and radiances. There are efforts for intercomparison of radiation codes.

The model, first published in 1970 and updated in 1971 and 1977, is based on spacecraft drag data, and is primarily used in spacecraft modeling and related fields. A common assumption while using the Jacchia Model is that the atmosphere rotates with the Earth as a rigid body. The statistical accuracy of the Jacchia Model is 15%.
ARTS (Atmospheric Radiative Transfer Simulator) is a widely used [2] atmospheric radiative transfer simulator for infrared, microwave, and sub-millimeter wavelengths. [3] While the model is developed by a community, core development is done by the University of Hamburg and Chalmers University, with previous participation from Luleå University of Technology and University of Bremen.

Atmospheric GCMs (AGCMs) model the atmosphere and impose sea surface temperatures as boundary conditions. Coupled atmosphere-ocean GCMs (AOGCMs, e.g. HadCM3, EdGCM, GFDL CM2.X, ARPEGE-Climat [37]) combine the two models. Models range in complexity: A simple radiant heat transfer model treats the earth as a single point and averages outgoing energy
The most recently released version of the code, MODTRAN6, provides a spectral resolution of 0.2 cm −1 using its 0.1 cm −1 band model algorithm. Some aspects of MODTRAN are patented by Spectral Sciences, Inc. and the US Air Force , who have shared development responsibility for the code and related radiation transfer science collaboratively ...
