On the Microphysical Properties of Ice Clouds as Inferred from the Polarization of Electromagnetic Waves

Uncertainties associated with the microphysical and radiative properties of ice clouds remain an active research area because of the importance these clouds have in atmospheric radiative transfer problems and the energy balance of the Earth. In this study, an adding/doubling model is used to simulat...
