On Depolarization Lidar-Based Method for The Determination of Liquid-Cloud Microphysical Properties
Under single scattering conditions, water droplets clouds do not depolarize the backscattered light. However, backscattered light from multiple scattering will be depolarized. The level of depolarization is a function of the droplets size, the cloud extinction coefficient value and profile; it has a...
