We investigate the shape dependence of the scattering by dielectric and metallic particles on surfaces by considering particles whose free-space scattering properties are nearly identical. The scattering by metallic particles is found to be strongly dependent upon the shape of the particle in the region near where the particle and surface contact. These results have a significant impact on the use of light scattering to size and identify particles on surfaces
