The emergent radiation from the atmosphere bounded by the two half Lambert surfaces composed of different albedo is computed in order to evaluate the effect of the nonuniform surface albedo on the emergent radiation from the atmosphere. The atmosphere, which is composed of aerosol, molecules, and absorbent gases, is assumed to be homogeneous. The present approach makes it possible to quantitatively examine the radiative transfer trend near the boundary of two half surfaces. The upward radiance is evaluated using the present scattering approximation method if the surface albedo is less than about 0.3. This method is argued to be a first step in extending the 1D radiative transfer model to 2D using the doubling-adding method.
