Total (top) and polarized (bottom) flux curves for our model Earth (bottom of Fig. 6) in an edge-on orbit with an axial tilt angle of 90° (see Table 1 for the planet’s position and phase angle during each observational epoch). The polarized flux is calculated only for the bidirectionally reflecting planets, since Lambertian reflection is unpo-larized.
