Three-dimensional simulation of the Ring effect in observations of scattered sun light using Monte Carlo radiative transfer models

We present a new technique for the quantitative simulation of the "Ring effect" for scattered light observations from various platforms and under different atmospheric situations. The method is based on radiative transfer calculations at only one wavelength λ<sub&...
