The Classification of Reflectance Anisotropy and Its Application in Albedo Retrieval
Atmosphere, 2022 The land surface albedo reflects the ability of the surface to reflect solar radiation and is a critical physical variable in the study of the Earth’s energy budget and global climate change.

Spin models with random anisotropy and reflection symmetry [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2004 We study the critical behavior of a general class of cubic-symmetric spin systems in which disorder preserves the reflection symmetry $s_a\to -s_a$, $s_b\to s_b$ for $b\not= a$. This includes spin models in the presence of random cubic-symmetric anisotropy with probability distribution vanishing outside the lattice axes. Using nonperturbative arguments

Detecting 3D Vegetation Structure with the Galileo Space Probe: Can a Distant Probe Detect Vegetation Structure on Earth? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Sagan et al. (1993) used the Galileo space probe data and first principles to find evidence of life on Earth. Here we ask whether Sagan et al. (1993) could also have detected whether life on Earth had three-dimensional structure, based on the Galileo ...

Full microscopic treatment of the optical response of the Si(100)2x1 surface [PDF]
, 1993 The optical reflection from the Si(100) 2 × 1 surface has been calculated, using the discrete dipole model and local polarizabilities obtained from quantum mechanical cluster calculations.

Reflectance Anisotropy of GaAs(100): Theory and Experiment [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 1998 The reflectance anisotropy has been calculated by microscopic tight-binding theory for various configurations of the As-rich GaAs(100) cs4 3 4d and s2 3 4d reconstructions, based on precise atomic coordinates from ab initio total-energy minimization. The comparison to experimental reflectance anisotropy in combination with scanning tunneling microscopy
