Volcanic ash infrared signature: porous non-spherical ash particle shapes compared to homogeneous spherical ash particles

The reverse absorption technique is often used to detect volcanic ash clouds from thermal infrared satellite measurements. From these measurements effective particle radius and mass loading may be estimated using radiative transfer modelling. The radiative transfer modelling usually assumes that the...
