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 …

The Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) mission will carry into space the
Ocean Color Instrument (OCI), a spectrometer measuring at 5 nm spectral resolution in the …

This paper provides a review of the development of profiling oceanographic lidars. These
can provide quantitative profiles of the optical properties of the water column to depths of 20 …

Since their development for investigating sand transport in the surf zone more than 25 years
ago, optical backscatter sensors (OBSs) have been in continual use for a wide variety of …

Knowledge of the relative proportion between small‐sized and larger particles in the surface
ocean is essential to understand the ocean ecology and biogeochemistry, including particle …

The variability of the backscattering to scattering ratio of marine particles, bbp: bp, is
examined from in situ measurements performed during the spring and early summer of 2004 …

A generalized coccolithophore bloom classifier has been developed for use with ocean
color imagery. The bloom classifier was developed using extracted satellite reflectance data …

A New Method for the Measurement of the Optical Volume Scattering Function in the Upper
Ocean in: Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology Volume 20 Issue 4 (2003) Jump …

We describe optical observations from the Southern Ocean (SO) Gas Exchange Experiment
(GasEx) during March 2008, designed to test the hypothesis that enhanced reflectance of …

Vibration is a very common process in nature, industry, biology, etc. Thus, whether vibration
could induce the formation of nanoscale bubbles in water or not is very important for some …
