Abstract
The results of complex lidar-actinometric experiments to study of the optical properties of high-level clouds (HLCs) and their effect on the solar radiation fluxes measured near the Earth's surface are described. Optical, microphysical (orientation of ice particles), and geometric characteristics of natural and anthropogenic (contrails) HLCs are estimated according to the data on polarization laser sensing. It is shown that the crystal orientation in cirrus affects significantly the transmission of short-wave solar radiation.
