DOI: DOI: 10.1007/978-3-031-85979-3Online resources: Summary: Preface -- Chapter 1. Microphysics and geometry of snow surfaces -- Chapter 2. Local optical properties of snow layers -- Chapter 3. Properties of solar light reflected from snow -- Chapter 4. Snow remote sensing.Summary: This book is the first book of its kind, focusing exclusively on the optical properties of snow. As a complex and turbid medium, snow is approached as a strongly light-scattering (in the visible spectrum) medium with large, nonspherical ice grains. The book discusses both experimental and theoretical results, as well as the remote sensing of snow using ground-based, airborne and satellite optical instrumentation. The book will be of particular importance for researchers studying snow characteristics (the size of grains, snow pollution and albedo) using various remote-sensing techniques.PPN: PPN: 1926115597Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-PHA | ZDB-2-SXP
