Cloud heterogeneity on cloud and aerosol above cloud properties retrieved from simulated total and polarized reflectances

Simulations of total and polarized cloud reflectance angular signatures such as the ones measured by the multi-angular and polarized radiometer POLDER3/PARASOL are used to evaluate cloud heterogeneity effects on cloud parameter retrievals. Effects on optical thickness, albedo, effective radius a...
