Résumé

An extensive database of light scattering (LS) properties for nonspherical particles has been computed to help in the radiative-transfer calculations on atmospheric aerosols. Its main features and size/shape/composition range are described. A second database, with kernel functions, has also been calculated to simplify the modeling of polydisperse particle size distributions.
