The variability of phase functions of submicrometer atmospheric aerosols was studied using Mie theory. In the analyzed statistical ensemble of phase functions, the effective radii of particles were 0.1-1.5 mm, real parts of refractive indices were 1.45-1.6, imaginary parts of refractive indices were 0.001-0.01, and coefficients of variance of particle size distributions were 0.2-1.1. An ensemble average, a coefficient of variance of a phase function, and a skewness were calculated. It was found that the coefficient of variance of a phase function has a minimum near a scattering angle of 1508. This fact was used to estimate the error in the aerosol optical thickness determination from space in the single scattering approximation of the radiative transfer theory.
