def relativeairmass(zenith, model='kastenyoung1989'):
    '''
    Gives the relative (not pressure-corrected) airmass.

    Gives the airmass at sea-level when given a sun zenith angle (in
    degrees). The ``model`` variable allows selection of different
    airmass models (described below). If ``model`` is not included or is
    not valid, the default model is 'kastenyoung1989'.

    Parameters
    ----------

    zenith : float or Series
        Zenith angle of the sun in degrees. Note that some models use
        the apparent (refraction corrected) zenith angle, and some
        models use the true (not refraction-corrected) zenith angle. See
        model descriptions to determine which type of zenith angle is
        required. Apparent zenith angles must be calculated at sea level.

    model : String
        Available models include the following:

        * 'simple' - secant(apparent zenith angle) -
          Note that this gives -inf at zenith=90
        * 'kasten1966' - See reference [1] -
          requires apparent sun zenith
        * 'youngirvine1967' - See reference [2] -
          requires true sun zenith
        * 'kastenyoung1989' - See reference [3] -
          requires apparent sun zenith
        * 'gueymard1993' - See reference [4] -
          requires apparent sun zenith
        * 'young1994' - See reference [5] -
          requries true sun zenith
        * 'pickering2002' - See reference [6] -
          requires apparent sun zenith

    Returns
    -------
    airmass_relative : float or Series
        Relative airmass at sea level.  Will return NaN values for any
        zenith angle greater than 90 degrees.
