Abstract
Scattering matrices are calculated for hexagonal ice columns and plates with preferred orientation near the horizontal plane by means of an algorithm based on geometric optics. Distributions of scattered energy among the various arcs inherent to scattering by oriented crystals are obtained. Impact of small orientation deviations from the horizontal plane is discussed.
