This study presents an approximative approach to solve the radiative transfer equation accounting for the rotational Raman scattering in a spherical atmosphere. The solution is obtained employing the method of characteristics in combination with the discrete-ordinates technique and the forward-adjoint perturbation theory. For a non-limb observational geometry, impact of the atmospheric sphericity on the filling-in of solar Fraunhofer lines is discussed. For a limb viewing geometry, the dependence of the filling-in on the surface elevation, surface albedo, and cloudiness below the instrument line of sight as well as the effect of the multiple scattering in the spatial domain is analyzed. A comparison of modeled and measured Ring spectra for a limb-viewing geometry is shown. The considered solution technique is implemented in the radiative transfer model SCIATRAN and is ready to use for atmospheric applications.
