We present details of a scheme for retrieving cirrus cloud optical thickness and effective particle size from nadir‐viewing reflectance measurements. Two near‐infrared wavelengths are used, one with negligible ice absorption (1.04 μm) and one with significant ice absorption (1.55 μm). Four ice crystal shapes are used in the scheme: ice spheres, hexagonal columns, hexagonal plates and randomized polycrystals. We highlight the sensitivity of the retrievals to the shape of the phase function, which follows from the particular ice crystal shape assumed.
