Abstract
Smoke falls into the broad optical category of aerosols, along with other aerosols such as snow and rain. The visibility through an aerosol has been extensively studied, since interpreting satellite and aerial reconnaissance photographs through weather has defense applications.1–4 Aerosols attenuate and scatter light propogating through them, making images both dim and blurry.
