Study of Ice Cloud Properties from Synergetic Use of Satellite Observations and Modeling Capabilities
The dissertation first investigates the single-scattering properties of inhomogeneous ice crystals containing air bubbles. Specifically, a combination of the ray-tracing technique and the Monte Carlo method is used to simulate the scattering of light by randomly oriented large hexagonal ice crystals...
