Περίληψη:
The strict analytical formulas are derived from asymptotic formulas of
the radiative transfer theory for determination of optical thickness and
single scattering albedo on base of measurements reflected or
transmitted solar radiance or irradiance in strati clouds. The detailed
error analysis of the methodology proposed is carried out. The formulas
obtained are applied for interpretation of the spectral data of
ground-based measurements at the drifting Arctic station in 1979. The
values of optical thickness and single scattering albedo are obtained
and reveal the apparent spectral dependency.
