  abstract: This is the eleventh volume in the series Light Scattering Reviews, devoted to current knowledge of light scattering problems and both experimental and theoretical research techniques related to their solution. The focus of this volume is to describe modern advances in radiative transfer and light scattering optics. This book brings together the most recent studies on light radiative transfer in the terrestrial atmosphere, while also reviewing environmental polarimetry. The book is divided into nine chapters: • the first four chapters review recent advances in modern radiative transfer theory and provide detailed descriptions of radiative transfer codes (e.g., DISORT and CRTM). Approximate solutions of integro-differential radiative transfer equations for turbid media with different shapes (spheres, cylinders, planeparallel layers) are detailed; • chapters 5 to 8 focus on studies of light scattering by single particles and radially inhomogeneous media; • the final chapter discusses the environmental polarimetry of man-made objects.
  table of contents: The Discrete-ordinate Algorithm, DISORT for Radiative Transfer -- Community Radiative Transfer Model for Air Quality Studies -- Radiative Transfer in Spherically and Cylindrically Symmetric Media -- The Debye Series and its Use in Time-domain Scattering -- Some Wave-theoretic Problems in Radially Inhomogeneous Media -- Polarimetry of Man-made Objects. .
