Download or read book Investigations of Angular Light Scattering by Complex Atmospheric Particles written by Jaervinen, Emma and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book experimentally investigates the angular light scattering properties of three atmospherically relevant particles: ice crystals, dust particles and secondary organic aerosol particles. Key optical quantities under examination are the near-backscattering depolarisation properties and the angular light scattering function. The main question is how these parameters are related to the particle microphysical properties, such as particle size and complexity.
