Remote sensing of water cloud droplet size distributions using the backscatter glory: a case study
Cloud single scattering properties are mainly determined by the effective radius of the droplet size distribution. There are only few exceptions where the shape of the size distribution affects the optical properties, in particular the rainbow and the glory directions of the scattering phase functio...
