 # Introduction
-The PythonicDISORT package is a Discrete Ordinates Solver for the (1D) Radiative Transfer Equation in a single or multi-layer plane-parallel atmosphere.
+The PythonicDISORT package is a Discrete Ordinates Solver for the (1D) Radiative Transfer Equation 
+in a plane-parallel, horizontally homogeneous atmosphere.
 It is coded entirely in Python 3 and is a reimplementation instead of a wrapper.
 While PythonicDISORT has been optimized for speed, it will naturally be slower than similar FORTRAN algorithms.
 On the other hand, PythonicDISORT should be easier to install, use, and modify than FORTRAN-based Discrete Ordinates Solvers.
 
-PythonicDISORT is based on Stamnes' FORTRAN DISORT (see References, in particular [2, 3, 8]) and has its main features: 
-delta-M scaling, Nakajima-Tanaka (NT) corrections, only flux option, isotropic internal sources (thermal sources), 
-Dirichlet boundary conditions (diffuse flux boundary sources), Bi-Directional Reflectance Function (BDRF) for surface reflection, and more.
-In addition, upon the request of a user, we added a subroutine to calculate actinic fluxes and we are open to further feature requests as well as feedback.

+In addition, we added a subroutine to calculate actinic fluxes to satisfy a user request, and integration with respect to tau was also added.
