Ocean Optics: Introduction And Overview

Proceedings of SPIE, 1986
This paper provides an introduction and overview of the discipline known as "ocean optics". Emphasis is on basic concepts, the optical quantities involved, their measurement, and interconnecting theoretical relationships. Specific topics include radiometric quantities, inherent optical properties, apparent optical properties, measuring the spectral ...

Fiber-optic ocean

ACM SIGGRAPH 2019 Art Gallery, 2019
Fiber-Optic Ocean is a virtual reality experience that generates procedural music and light from live data. Fiber-Optic Ocean portrays the struggle of human beings to survive in the age of corporations via the metaphor of sharks in an ocean invaded by technology and interprets what happens when technology invades the world's oceans.

Ocean Optics VI

Journal of Optics A: Pure and Applied Optics, 2002
Although the world's oceans, seas and freshwater lakes play a dominant role in the planet's ecosystem, they are possibly the least understood of our natural habitats. The challenges facing scientists and engineers in the study of this environment are immense and unique.

Nanoparticles and Ocean Optics

2007
Abstract : Our long-term goal is to understand the role of the two most abundant nanoparticles in the sea, viruses and polymer aggregates, in controlling the inherent ocean optical properties of seawater. There are two objectives to this work that deal with the role of nanoparticles and ocean optics: 1. To determine the importance of viruses (and other

The Analysis Of Ocean Optical Data

SPIE Proceedings, 1984
A new oceanographic instrument to measure underwater optical, biological and physical properties simultaneously has been built and used extensively at sea. The Bio-Optical Profiling System (BOPS) was designed for the rapid acquisition of data to accommodate shipboard 'synoptic' sampling strategies, often in conjunction with concurrent aircraft and ...

Optical properties of the ocean

Reports on Progress in Physics, 1973
Oceanic optical properties are reviewed. Topics covered include energy losses, refractive index effects, polarization, non- optical uses of optical measurements and measuring instruments. Throughout the article the optical difference between true oceanic and coastal water is emphasized.

Ocean Optics

1994
Since the publication of Jerlov's classic volume on optical oceanography in 1968, the ability to predict or model the submarine light field, given measurements of the inherent optical properties of the ocean, has improved to the point that model fields are very close to measured fields.

Optical studies in the Southern Ocean

Deep Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, 2004
During the Austral summer of 1997-1998, measurements of absorption, attenuation, downwelling and upwelling irradiance were made in the Southern Ocean along a S-N transect at 6degreesE. Measurements were made to quantify the penetration of ultraviolet B radiation (UVBR) in the water column and daily doses of UVBR at different water depths, to study the ...
