Optical Effects of Large Particles; References; IndexSince 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. In the last three decades, remote sensing capabilities have fostered powerful models that can be inverted to estimate the inherent optical properties closely related to substances important for understanding global biological productivity, environmental quality, and most nearshore geophysical processes. This volume presents an eclectic blend of information on the theories, experiments, and instrumentation that now characterize the ways in which optical oceanography is studied.Oxford monographs on geology and geophysics ;no. 25.Optical oceanographyCongressesOceanographyCongressesElectronic books.Optical oceanographyOceanography551.46551.4601Spinrad Richard W863314Carder Kendall L863315Perry Mary Jane1948-863316MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450661303321Ocean optics1927124UNINA
