We examined optical variability of seawater in relation to particle concentration, composition,
and size distribution in the nearshore marine environment at Imperial Beach, California, over …

The role of suspended minerogenic particles in light scattering in eastern Lake Superior and
Keweenaw Bay (11 sites) during July of 2006 was evaluated with an individual particle …

Light‐scattering attributes of minerogenic particles in a reservoir, where these particles
dominate over a wide range of light‐scattering levels, were characterized by an individual …

Variability in upper ocean optical properties is often driven by changes in the particle pool.
We investigated the effects of such changes by characterizing individual particles. For …

The optical properties of mineral particles suspended in seawater were calculated from the
Mie scattering theory for different size distributions and complex refractive indices of the …

In many environments a large portion of particulate material is contained in aggregated
particles; however, there is no validated framework to describe how aggregates in the ocean …

Optical scattering and particle size measurements are reported at 78 stations along the
south and west coast of Britain. The composition of the particles is mainly mineral (70% by …

The significance of light backscattering in the ocean is wide ranging, especially in optical
remote sensing. However, the complexity of natural seawater as an optical medium often …

To address these issues with respect to the multifarious conditions existing in the different
basins of the World Ocean is a highly complicated matter and exceeds the scope of the …

The extent of light absorption in the near‐infrared spectral region (NIR; 700–900 nm) of
natural suspended particles was investigated by determining the absorption and mass …
