Download or read book Cloud Optics written by Alexander A. Kokhanovsky and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-07 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clouds affect the climate of the Earth, and they are an important factor in the weather. Therefore, their radiative properties must be understood in great detail. This book summarizes current knowledge on cloud optical properties, for example their ability to absorb, transmit, and reflect light, which depends on the clouds’ geometrical and microphysical characteristics such as sizes of droplets and crystals, their shapes, and structures. In addition, problems related to the image transfer through clouds and cloud remote sensing are addressed in this book in great detail. This book can be an important source of information on theoretical cloud optics for cloud physicists, meteorologists and optical engineers. All basic ideas of optics as related to scattering of light in clouds (e.g. Mie theory and radiative transfer) are considered in a self consistent way. Consequently, the book can also be a useful textbook to newcomers to the field.

Book Marine Light Field Statistics

Download or read book Marine Light Field Statistics written by Ronald E. Walker and published by Wiley-Interscience. This book was released on 1994-08-29 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive treatment of the light field fluctuations observed below and above the ocean surface caused by air-sea interaction effects, which are light reflection and refraction from the wind roughened sea under clear and overcast conditions as well as whitecaps. Natural light reflected from the sea surface is used to demonstrate how some mathematical procedures can be adapted to model and interpret statistical properties of reflected light. Contains the latest developments regarding hydrologic optics including bi-optical water characteristics.
