The carotenoid redshift: Physical basis and implications for visual signaling. [PDF]
Carotenoid pigments appear redder as the concentration of a pigment increases. The carotenoid redshift arises due to the asymmetrical reflectance spectra of carotenoid‐colored ornaments and the exponential attenuation of light. Structures that increase the path length of light through carotenoid pigment also cause a redshift, as we demonstrate in the ...
