Scattering Characteristics of Homogeneous and Inhomogeneous Particles:Scattering in the Visible and Near Infrared.

摘要

Data are presented that give the absorption and extinction efficiencies for both homogeneous spherical aerosol particles and inhomogeneous spherical shell aerosol particles as a function of the size parameter x = 2(pi)r/lambda. The data giving the scattering properties of aerosols were computed with machine procedures using Mie theory. Calculations were run to investigate the effect of the atmospheric humidity on the macroscopic scattering properties of aerosols for visible and near infrared light. Data are also presented that give scattering,absorption,and extinction coefficients and the phase matrix for visible and infrared light scattering with tropospheric,stratospheric,and fog particles.
