 '''Notes:'''
  * `idx` is usually the counte over the valid local observation of the observation type in the observation module
- * `cradius_l` and `sradius_l` are usually the same for all local observations of a single type if the localization is isotropic
+ * `cradius_l` and `sradius_l` are usually the same for all local observations of a single type if the localization is isotropic. 
+ * For non-isotropic localization `cradius_l` and `sradius_l` are the radii in the direction of the observation. This calculation can be complex. How this is done inside PDAF-OMI can be seen in the routine `PDAFomi_check_dist2_noniso_loop` in the file `/src/PDAFomi_dim_obs_l.F90` of the PDAF library.
  * While using this routine can be more convenient than doing the initialization of the variables in `thisobs_l` in the user code, in our tests the code ran faster when we did not use this routine, but did this initialization in the user code.
