Backscattering by Non-Spherical Natural Particles: Instrument Development, IOP's, and Implications for Radiative Transfer
Abstract
Long-term goals are to: Quantify and understand the inherent optical properties (IOP's) of natural particles from a standpoint of measuring size-distribution (ii) Understand how the properties of particles (composition, shape, and internal structure) affect their IOP. (iii) Incorporate these properties into radiative transfer models for prediction of downwelling and upwelling radiances.
