Scientific paper

Certain simple procedures for solving radiative transfer problems in planetary atmospheres are reviewed: the similarity relations relating isotropic to anisotropic scattering, asymptotic results relating known solutions for semi-infinite layers to desired solutions for optical depths, and expansions relating known solutions for conservative scattering to desired solutions for the nearly conservative case. The complications introduced by atmospheric inhomogeneity, surface reflection, and spectral features are also discussed.
