Reflection
Process of returning sound or light waves back to their source.
Process where insolation is redirect by 180° after striking a particle. This redirection causes 100 % loss. Most of the reflection in the Earth's atmosphere occurs in clouds because of light's interception with particles of liquid and frozen water. The reflectivity of a cloud can range from 40-90 %.
