Abstract

Adjacency effects from layered box shaped clouds are clarified by means of Monte Carlo Simulation taking into account a phase function of cloud particles and multi-layered plane parallel atmosphere.
Effects on adjacency effects of phase function of the clouds in concern and the number of layers of the plane parallel atmosphere are also found together with the effects from the top and the bottom clouds.
