Impact of Multiple Scattering on Longwave Radiative Transfer Involving Clouds

Impact of Multiple Scattering on Longwave Radiative Transfer Involving Clouds

Abstract General circulation models (GCMs) are extensively used to estimate the influence of clouds on the global energy budget and other aspects of climate. Because radiative transfer computations involved in GCMs are costly, it is typical to consider only absorption but not scattering by clouds in...
