Abstract
A method by which the transport of anisotropic radiative multiple scattering can be predicted is developed in this paper. A one-dimensional integral intensity model and a three-dimensional diffusion intensity model are both constructed. The former provides a closed-form solution, while the latter involves successive approximation and Gauss's quadrature. On the basis of these methods, the reflection and transmission of solar radiation in a homogeneous cloud layer are computed. The results differ from those for isotropic and Rayleigh scattering assumptions and illustrate the effects on transmission and reflectivity of optical thickness, wavelength, incidence angle, and albedo of single scattering.
