An Instrument for In Situ Measuring the Volume Scattering Function of Water: Design, Calibration and Primary Experiments [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2012
The optical volume scattering function (VSF) of seawater is a fundamental property used in the calculation of radiative transfer for applications in the study of the upper-ocean heat balance, the photosynthetic productivity of the ocean, and the chemical

Inversion of Volume Scattering Function for Estimation of Bubble Size Distribution in Ocean Waters [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
Angular distribution of the intensity of light scattered by a spherical air bubble in the oceanic medium is distinctive near the critical scattering angle region, when light interacts with a bubble with a refractive index less than its surrounding medium.

Measurements of the Volume Scattering Function and the Degree of Linear Polarization of Light Scattered by Contrasting Natural Assemblages of Marine Particles

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
The light scattering properties of seawater play important roles in radiative transfer in the ocean and optically-based methods for characterizing marine suspended particles from in situ and remote sensing measurements.

Measurements of Aquatic Particle Volume Scattering Function up to 178.5° in the East China Sea

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Particulate volume scattering function (VSF), especially at angles larger than 170°, is of particular importance for interpreting ocean optical remote sensing signals and underwater imagery.

Volume scattering function measured in the oceans and lakes (2009–2024)

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters
Volume scattering function (VSF) is a fundamental inherent optical property but has been scarcely measured in natural environments. To address this observational gap, we compiled a dataset of non‐water, particle VSFs (βp) measured in a variety of waters,

Comparative analysis of diffusion length based on the volume scattering function measurements from the East and South China Seas

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Particle scattering is a key factor affecting underwater light transport. The diffusion length (zD), defined as 1/[b(1 − g)], where b is the scattering coefficient and g is the asymmetry factor, is obtained from the volume scattering function (VSF) of ...

A scattering function of star polymers including excluded volume effects

open access: yesJournal of Applied Crystallography, 2014
This work presents a new model for the form factor of a star polymer consisting of self-avoiding branches. This new model incorporates excluded volume effects and is derived from the two-point correlation function for a star polymer. This model is compared with small-angle neutron scattering measurements from polystyrene stars immersed in a good ...

Spectral dependence of the correlation between the backscattering coefficient and the volume scattering function measured in the southern Baltic Sea

open access: yesOceanologia, 2012
Direct measurements of the backscattering coefficient bb require the determination of the Volume Scattering Function (VSF) and its integration over a backward hemisphere. In sea water they are difficult and are therefore carried out very rarely.

Biogeochemical origins of particles obtained from the inversion of the volume scattering function and spectral absorption in coastal waters [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2013
In the aquatic environment, particles can be broadly separated into phytoplankton (PHY), non-algal particle (NAP) and dissolved (or very small particle, VSP) fractions.
