Caption: Figure 6.

Phase curve for the Earth rotating about its axis, computed from the lmax = 10 expansion from Figure 4. The full rotational phase curve is shown in black, and the flux due to each of the seven continents is shown by the colored curves (see legend). The black dots correspond to the numerical solution (see Section 4.7; Python).
