  • Abstract
    Simple parameterizations for local scattering and absorption characteristics of mixed clouds are presented. Parameterizations are obtained using Mie theory for droplets and Mackeʹs fractal model for nonspherical ice crystals. The accuracy of the approximation developed is studied using correspondent numerical calculations based on Mie theory and geometrical optics Monte-Carlo calculations for crystals.
