Tishkovets, V.P., and M.I. Mishchenko (2010), Coherent backscattering: Conceptions and misconceptions (reply to comments by Bruce W. Hapke and Robert M. Nelson), J. Quant. Spectrosc. Radiat. Transfer, 111, 645-649, doi:10.1016/j.jqsrt.2009.11.007.
Abstract

Although the note by Hapke and Nelson has virtually no relevance to our original publication, it contains a number of statements that are misleading and/or wrong. We, therefore, use this opportunity to dispel several profound misconceptions that continue to hinder the progress in remote sensing of planetary surfaces.
