Usually approximated by the Henyey-Greenstein phase function or by Discrete Gegenbauer series, it is a powerful tool to calculate the size and the refractive index of spheroids.

Furthermore, it explains why clouds appear to be white: because the particles that form clouds have a radius about the same size or larger than the incoming light's wavelength. FTP name this type of scattering where all wavelengths of light are scattered equally.
