A variation of the moment method of Wilson and Sen (1986) is used to solve the radiative transfer problem in an anisotropic scattering plane-parallel medium with an arbitrary space-dependent albedo, omega (x). Considering the case of both forward and backward scattering, the reflectance and transmission functions for linear and quadratic variation of omega(x) are given for isotropic incidence of unit intensity. The exit distribution of radiation for a linear variation of omega(x) is also given for both isotropic and normal incidence of intensity. Results from the present delta approximation method are in good agreement with those of Cengel and Ozisik (1985).
