How does mie scattering differ from Rayleigh scattering in terms of their effects on the scattering of light?

Mie scattering and Rayleigh scattering are both processes that cause light to scatter, but they differ in how they affect the scattering of light. Mie scattering occurs when particles are larger than the wavelength of light, leading to more uniform scattering in all directions. On the other hand, Rayleigh scattering occurs when particles are smaller than the wavelength of light, causing more intense scattering in the forward direction and less in other directions.
