Diffuse light

Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-005002

Light that has been scattered or reflected multiple times, resulting in illumination that appears to come from all directions rather than a single source. This type of light reduces shadows and creates a softer, more even illumination. In the atmosphere, diffuse light is primarily caused by scattering from air molecules and aerosols.
