Abstract: Highlights•A novel natural steganographic scheme for haze images by making embedding modifications mimic the transition of weather effects.•A physically valid cover-source switching algorithm for natural steganography of haze images.•Two steganographic embedding methods for floating-point images in spatial-domain based on the textural complexity.
