Springer Series in Light Scattering - Volume 9: Electromagnetic Theory of Scattering and Radiative Transfer

The book is aimed at description of recent progress in studies of light extinction, absorption, and scattering in turbid media. In particular, light scattering/oceanic optics/planetary optics research communities are greatly benefit from the publication of this book.

List of contents

Extinction of electromagnetic waves by bounded targets: local and far-field definitions, measurements, generalizations and paradoxes.- Light scattering by large densely packed clusters of particles.- The volume scattering function of particles in the oceans.- Light backscattering by atmospheric particles: from laboratory to field experiments.- Local optical properties of turbid media and their influence on radiative transfer processes.- The study of planetary surface materials using reflectance spectroscopy.
