   * The surface is described by the ocean reflectance matrix using Mishchenko'​s code [[http://​www.giss.nasa.gov/​staff/​mmishchenko/​ftpcode/​ocean.shadow.f|ocean.shadow.f]] (uses anti-clockwise convention for azimuth angle!)   * The surface is described by the ocean reflectance matrix using Mishchenko'​s code [[http://​www.giss.nasa.gov/​staff/​mmishchenko/​ftpcode/​ocean.shadow.f|ocean.shadow.f]] (uses anti-clockwise convention for azimuth angle!)
   * wind speed: 5 m/s   * wind speed: 5 m/s
 +  * mean surface slope, according to Eq. 18 in Mishchenko and Travis 1997:\\ 2$\sigma^2$ = 0.003 + 0.00512 $\cdot$ u$_{10}$, where u$_{10}$ is the wind speed in m/s
