Theoretical Aspects of Modeling Backscattering by Cirrus Ice Particles at Millimeter Wavelengths

Theoretical Aspects of Modeling Backscattering by Cirrus Ice Particles at Millimeter Wavelengths

A study examines how nonspherical ice particles backscatter electromagnetic radiation at millimetric wavelwngths. The discrete dipole approximation is used to examine backscattering by single particles.
