Parameterizing anisotropic reflectance of snow surfaces from airborne digital camera observations in Antarctica

<p>The surface reflection of solar radiation comprises an important boundary condition for solar radiative transfer simulations. In polar regions above snow surfaces, the surface reflection is particularly anisotropic due to low Sun elevations and the highly anisotropic scattering phase functi...
