On the polarization angle of skylight reflected by natural surfaces: Properties and application for remote sensing of planetary atmospheres
In this study, we focus on the polarization angle of light scattered by terrestrial atmosphere-surface systems. The polarization angle describes the orientation of the plane in which the linearly polarized portion of light propagates. We show for skylight how this angle varies with the solar zenith...
