Abstract

We present results of numerical simulations of flux F and degree of polarization P of light that is reflected by Earth-like extrasolar planets orbiting solar type stars. Our results are presented as functions of the wavelength (from 0.3 to 1.0{mu}m, with 0.001{mu}m spectral resolution) and as functions of the planetary phase angle. We use different surface coverages for our model planets, including vegetation and a Fresnel reflecting ocean, and clear and cloudy atmospheres.
