Cirrus Optical Properties (COP)


We calculated a large amount of single scattering properties of hexagonal ice crystals with help of a ray tracing model. Part of these data is available on our anonymous ftp server. We created two packages, each containing data for single crystals of different sizes, calculated for different wavelengths, together with a FORTRAN code, which allows mixing of these data of single particles to those of size distributions, i.e. clouds of ice crystals.
