TL;DR: In this article, the authors used shape mixtures of randomly oriented spheroids for modeling desert dust aerosol light scattering, and the results indicated that nonspherical particles with aspect ratios similar to 1.5 dominate in desert dust plumes, while in the case of background maritime aerosol spherical particles are dominant.

Aerosol light absorption and its measurement: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used Mie theory for spherical particles and with more complicated numerical methods for other particle shapes to calculate aerosol light absorption in the atmosphere, which contributes to solar radiative forcing through absorption of solar radiation and heating of the absorbing aerosol layer.

TL;DR: This work finds that Silicon particles with index of refraction∼3.5 and radius∼200 nm present strong electric and magnetic dipolar resonances in telecom and near-infrared frequencies, without spectral overlap with quadrupolar and higher order resonances.
