Beer's law of exponential decay in direct transmission is well-known but its break-down in
spatially variable optical media has been discussed only sporadically in the literature. We …

This paper discusses results from a series of direct numerical simulations of the microscale
cloud–clear air mixing, set forth in the idealized scenario of decaying moist turbulence. In the …

We analyze the effects of flat and bumpy top, fractional and internally inhomogeneous cloud
layers on large area-averaged thermal radiative fluxes. Inhomogeneous clouds are …

An analysis is presented of the structure functions and scalar spectra for 25 satellite‐derived
marine stratocumulus cloud optical depth fields. The scenes, which cover a horizontal …

Statistical scale-by-scale analysis, for the first time, has been applied to the aerosol optical
thickness (AOT) retrieved from the Multi-Filter Rotating Shadowband Radiometer (MFRSR) …

We present a coherent treatment, based on linear kinetic theory, of stochastic radiative
transfer in an atmosphere containing clouds. A brief summary of statistical cloud radiation …

The plane parallel homogeneous (PPH) approximation is known to generate systematic
errors in the computation of reflectivity and transmissivity of a horizontally inhomogeneous …

Various aspects of modern statistical physics and meteorology can be tied together. The
historical importance of the University of Wroclaw in the field of meteorology is first pointed …

The central subject of this work is to improve the understanding of multiple scattering and
absorption in the presence of 3d cloud fields. A systematic investigation of the effect of 3d …

Vegetation structure significantly impacts the degree of anisotropy of the scattered radiation
field. The proper analysis of multiangular data, such as those provided by the Multi-angle …
