Abstract

The work is devoted to remote sensing droplet clouds by coaxial lidar. The results of numerical modeling of the distribution of polarization ellipse parameters of lidar returns in the double-scattering approximation are discussed. It is shown that the half-width of the particle size distribution has a greater influence on the ellipticity of the polarization ellipse rather than a modal radius.
