Determination of spectral signatures of substances in natural waters [PDF]
Optical remote sensing of water pollution offers the possibility of fast, large scale coverage at a relatively low cost. The possibility of using the spectral characteristics of the upwelling light from water for the purpose of ocean water quality ...

Polarized light detection in spiders [PDF]
, 2001 Copyright © 2001 The Company of BiologistsWe describe here the detection of polarized light by the simple eyes of spiders. Using behavioural, morphological, electrophysiological and optical studies, we show that spiders have evolved two different ...
