14 Three-Dimensional Radiative Transfer in Vegetation Canopies
Interaction of photons with a host medium is described by a linear transport equation. This equation has a very simple physical interpretation; it is a mathematical statement of the energy conservation law. In spite of the different physics behind radiation transfer in clouds and vegetation, these media have certain macro and micro-scale features in common. First, both are characterized by stro...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Radiative Transfer Tomography for Turbid Media
The photon distribution, as a function of position, angle, and time, is computed using the analytical cumulant solution of the Boltzmann radiative transfer equation (RTE). A linear forward model for light propagation in turbid media for three-dimensional (3-D) optical tomography is formed based on this solution. The model can be used with time resolved, continuous wave (CW), and frequency-domai...
متن کامل3 A Primer in Three-Dimensional Radiative Transfer
Technically speaking, only the 2-stream model in homogeneous (or layered) plane-parallel, cylindrical, or spherical geometries can be truly one-dimensional (1D) because there is no angular dependence to worry about, only the axial flow of radiant energy in a highly symmetric medium with equally symmetric source distributions. By strict mathematical standards, azimuthally-averaged or-symmetric r...
متن کاملThree-dimensional optical tomography with the equation of radiative transfer
We report on the derivation and implementation of the first three-dimensional optical tomographic image reconstruction scheme that is based on the time-independent equation of radiative transfer (ERT) and allows for arbitrarily shaped medium boundaries and arbitrary spatial material distributions. The scheme builds on the concept of model-based iterative image reconstruction, in which a forward...
متن کاملEfficient radiative transfer in dust grain mixtures
The influence of a dust grain mixture consisting of spherical dust grains with different radii and/or chemical composition on the resulting temperature structure and spectral energy distribution of a circumstellar shell is investigated. The comparison with the results based on an approximation of dust grain parameters representing the mean optical properties of the corresponding dust grain mixt...
