Abstract
A two-stream radiative transfer model is used to derive expressions for the multiple-scattered transmitted flux (including single-scattering contributions) and the total effective average photon path length on transmission of a normally incident plane-parallel beam on a homogeneous layer characterized by the optical depth, the single-scattering albedo, and the asymmetry parameter of the scatterers. The results are simple analytical expressions that are useful for modifying the Beer-Lambert transmission law for a thick scattering medium in which the multiple-scattering contribution to the transmission is not negligible.
