Scientific paper

A semiinfinite inhomogeneous plane atmosphere illuminated by parallel rays is analyzed. It is assumed that everywhere in this atmosphere (or at least in a deep enough surface layer) the albedo of particles differs little from unity. In this case simple asymptotic equations are found for the coefficient of reflection, the albedo, the transmission function, and the average optical depth of absorption of a photon. The case of isotropic scattering, which is illustrated by a concrete example, is considered in detail.
