Three atmospheric processes modify the solar radiation passing through our atmosphere destined to the Earth's surface. These processes act on the radiation when it interacts with gases and suspended particles found in the atmosphere. The process of scattering occurs when small particles and gas molecules.

Types of Light Scattering. Scattering of Light: An overview of the various forms of light scattering. Materials can also be investigated examining the light scattered from a material. There are many forms of scattering, but the principal ones are as follows: Rayleigh Scattering. Rayleigh is elastic scattering from small particles such as atoms or molecules, resulting in scattered radiation
Customer ServiceThere are three different types of scattering: Rayleigh scattering, Mie scattering, and non-selective scattering. Rayleigh scattering mainly consists of scattering from atmospheric gases. This occurs when the particles causing the scattering are smaller in size than the wavelengths of radiation in contact with them.

Customer ServiceHow Different Types of Energy Work Together . Though many different types of energy exist, you can classify the different forms as either potential or kinetic, and it''s common for objects to typically exhibit multiple types of energy at the same time. For example, a car in motion exhibits kinetic energy, and its engine converts chemical energy from fuel into mechanical

There are three different types of scattering: Rayleigh scattering, Mie scattering, and non-selective scattering. Rayleigh scattering mainly consists of scattering from atmospheric gases. This occurs when the particles causing the scattering are smaller in size than the wavelengths of radiation in contact with them.
The amount of scattering that takes place is dependent on two factors: wavelength of the incoming radiation and the size of the scattering particle or gas molecule. In the Earth's atmosphere, the presence of a large number of particles with a size of about 0.5 microns results in shorter wavelengths being preferentially scattered.
Rayleigh scattering mainly consists of scattering from atmospheric gases. This occurs when the particles causing the scattering are smaller in size than the wavelengths of radiation in contact with them. This type of scattering is therefore wavelength dependent. As the wavelength decreases, the amount of scattering increases.
Atmospheric scattering and absorption reduce the amount of solar radiation striking Earth's surface to some fraction of the extraterrestrial radiation. This fraction, called the clearness index, varies stochastically in time, due principally to the fluctuating amount of water vapor and water droplets contained in the atmosphere.
