Can OSOAA be used to simulate the single scattering of radiation transmission by setting SOS.IGMAX = 1 ? Multiple scattering is not considered.

blafranc commented 3 years ago

By setting SOS.IGMAX=1, you will simulate :

  1. The reflection on the seabed of the direct solar beam transmitted from Top Of the Atmosphere to the seabed.
  2. The single scattering both in the sea and the atmosphere.
  3. The sea-to-air transmission of the single scattering radiance in the water.
  4. The direct solar reflection on the sea surface (sun-glint and foam reflections).

Hoping this answer will help you.
