Abstract: Adjacency effects from layered box shaped clouds are clarified by means of Monte Carlo Simulation: MCS taking into account a phase function of cloud particles and multi-layered plane parallel atmosphere. MCS allows estimation of top of the atmosphere radiance. Influences on adjacency effects of phase function of the clouds in concern and the number of layers of the plane parallel atmosphere are also clarified together with the effects from the top and the bottom clouds. There are 10 of cloud types in meteorological definition. One-layer cloud for cumulus and cumulonimbus clouds are investigated in this study.
