Description

I see unreasonably large tropo corrections at elevations close to zero in TLSG00FRA_R_20240010100_15M_01S_MO.csv:

The elevation of that satellite is 0.0004 degrees. Does prx's tropo model have a lower elevation bound?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported result from TLSG00FRA_R_20240010100_15M_01S_MO.csv at the 0.0004-degree elevation, then trace the tropo model's elevation handling. Done means the project documents or corrects the lower-elevation behavior and verifies that corrections near zero elevation are bounded and sensible.
