Measurements of total irradiance versus depth and beam transmission versus depth were made at
stations near shore along the west coast of the North and South American continents. The water types at
each station were optically classified according to the system of Jerlov (1976), thus providing additional
information for the...
Narrow angle light scattering measurements were made for various sizes of spherical particles suspended in water. These were compared to calculated theoretical scattering values as derived from the theory of Mie (1908). Through measurements with different particle concentrations at angles between 0.2° and 0.7° the effect of the unscattered main...
