摘要: The data library of optical properties hexagonal ice crystals for radiative modeling, Cirrus Optical Properties (COP), is introduced. It includes phase functions, asymmetry parameters, extinction cross sections, and single scattering albedos. Furthermore, lidar ratios depolarization are given. dependence these parameters on wavelength, particle size, shape calculated, different orientations considered. In addition, a simple fortran code provided to calculate the corresponding size distributions. Thus very flexible tool determining clouds climatological purposes remote sensing. distributed through electronic mail.
