Caption: Figure 9.

Orbital variation of the disk-integrated scattered light of the Earth based on ROCKE-3D outputs simulating present-day Earth. In order to see the diurnal variations clearly, the spin period is set at 100 hr while the orbital period is one Earth year. Vernal equinox for the northern hemisphere is located at inferior conjunction.
