10. Glossary
Domaine optique; optical domain
Spectral range covering 0.4 to 14.0 μm.
Domaine reflectif; reflective domain
Spectral range (0.4; 3.0 μm) where the measured radiative flux is dominated by the reflection of solar radiation in the Earth-atmosphere system.
Domaine émissif; emissive domain
Spectral range (3.0; 14.0 μm) where the measured radiative flux is dominated by the emission phenomena of a body at ambient temperature in the Earth-atmosphere system.
Phase function
Angular distribution of radiation scattered by aerosols. Depends on wavelength and particle type.
Albédo de simple diffusion; single scattering albedo
Quantity quantifying the relative importance of aerosol...
