Abstract

In this paper we study the phase functions for water-droplet clouds and fogs computed by the Mie theory for specific bimodal and “mirror”- transformed droplet size gamma-distributions. In addition, we construct images of coronas, fogbows and glory that can occur for such cloud and fog models.
