On the subject of light scattering simulations, several classical computational approaches are reviewed, including the conventional geometric-optics method and its improved forms, the finite-difference time domain technique, the pseudo-spectral time domain technique, the discrete dipole approximation method, and the T-matrix method, with specific applications to the computation of the singlescattering properties of individual ice crystals. The strengths and weaknesses associated with each approach are discussed.With reference to remote sensing, operational retrieval algorithms are reviewed for retrieving cloud optical depth and effective particle size based on solar or thermal infrared（IR） bands. To illustrate the performance of the current solar- and IR-based retrievals, two case studies are presented based on spaceborne observations. The need for a more realistic ice cloud optical model to obtain spectrally consistent retrievals is demonstrated. Furthermore, to complement ice cloud property studies based on passive radiometric measurements, the advantage of incorporating lidar and/or polarimetric measurements is discussed.The performance of ice cloud models based on the use of different ice habits to represent ice particles is illustrated by comparing model results with satellite observations. A summary is provided of a number of parameterization schemes for ice cloud radiative properties that were developed for application to broadband radiative transfer submodels within general circulation models（GCMs）. The availability of the single-scattering properties of complex ice habits has led to more accurate radiation parameterizations. In conclusion, the importance of using nonspherical ice particle models in GCM simulations for climate studies is proven.展开更多

Under considering the solar system experiment requirement, a new parameter ε is introduced. This extension does not change the virtue of the scheme on the linear partial differential equations of the potential and vector potential mentioned in previous work. Furthermore, this extension is based on the former work done by Richter and Matzner in one global system theory. As an application, we also consider the deflection of light ray in the global coordinates. And the deflection angle of light ray is obtained with post-Newtonian parameters.展开更多

Under the light-adapted condition,σ’PSII is larger, and F’v/F’m（ST） and F’v/F’m（MT） are smaller than those of the dark-adapted condition, but the corresponding parameters possess good linear correlations.Fm（MT）, F’m（MT）, Fv/Fm（MT） and F’v/F’m（MT） which are measured using the multipleturnover protocol, are larger than those of the single-turnover protocol. The linear correlation coefficient between Fm（ST） and Fm（MT） is 0.984,and Fv/Fm（MT） = 1.18 Fv/Fm（ST） The linear correlation coefficient between F’m（ST） and F’m（MT） is 0.995, and F’v/F’m（MT） = 1.36 F’v/F’m/（ST）.展开更多
