“…Several parametrizations were developed for visible and infrared wavelengths (Magono, 1966;Labonnote et al, 2000;Yang et al, 2001Yang et al, , 2005Baum et al, 2005bBaum et al, , 2011Baran and Labonnote, 2007;Baran et al, 2009;Baran, 2012;Baran et al, 2013). For cirrus cases 1 to 8 we employ the aggregate ice crystal model (Yang et al, 2001(Yang et al, , 2005 with a monodisperse distribution used in the IIR retrieval algorithm (Garnier et al, 2013) that provides an extinction coefficient, a single-scattering albedo and an asymmetry factor (Yang et al, 2001(Yang et al, , 2005.…”
