English term or phrase: near-specular partial reflection
Hallo alle dadraußen,

hoffe ihr könnt helfen. Satz folgt:
"Such layers may have power reflection
coefficients at low elevation angles capable of scattering significant energy to ground targets and back
by near-specular partial reflection, and in some cases incoherent forward scatter from turbulent
domains propagating across layer surfaces under the influence of winds are believed capable of
generating discrete moving echoes in clear air."
Man kann sich zwar vorstellen was near-specular heißt und natürlich auch partial reflection, aber ich finde diesen Begriff in keiner Kombination, egal wie ich es zusammensetze.

Danke im Voraus
