Abstract

Then area with zero atmospheric polarization effect, and with the sun as its centre is discussed: this area is called the atmosphere polarization neutral point area. This area reflects a new atmospheric window, namely one in which polarization remote sensing reflectance light from land objects could not exist therein, and may be captured by a polarized remote sensor with only slight attenuation.
