Abstract:: The solar energy flux as a function of depth (the irradiance profile) in the ocean is an important function. It influences the dynamics of the mixed layer via the heat budget as well as the biology of the euphotic zone. The following three-parameter model can take into account the very...

Creator:: Spinrad, Richard W. and Zaneveld, J. Ronald
Abstract:: Profiles of light transmission versus depth have been studied in the region of the Scotian Rise of the North Atlantic at bottom depths between 4900 and 5000 m. A component model has been developed and consists of three components of transmission which can be combined to duplicate accurately any given...

Creator:: Spinrad, Richard W., Zaneveld, J. Ronald, and Kitchen, James C.
Abstract:: Light transmission profiles have been used to study the optical properties of the suspended particles which are characteristic of the area of the Scotian Rise in the North Atlantic Ocean. This area is typified by very strong bottom currents and a highly variable bedform morphology. A good correlation (r =...

Creator:: Spinrad, Richard W., Zaneveld, J. Ronald, and Pak, Hasong
Abstract:: 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...

Abstract:: Hydrographic and optical measurements were made in situ in the Congo River and the Angola Basin during May 1978. These measurements were made by members of the optical oceanography group at Oregon State University in cooperation with scientists from the Netherlands Institute for Sea Research. The data taken by the...

Abstract:: During May and September of 1978, cruises were made in Monterey Bay to study the relationship of ocean color spectra measured by aircraft and in situ optical, hydrographic, and chemical parameters. These cruises were carried out by the Oregon State University optical oceanography group and by the Naval Postgraduate School...

Abstract:: Spectral beam attenuation coefficients, spectral volume scattering function meaurements at 45°, 90°, and 130° particle size distributions and chlorophyll a and phaeophytin pigment concentrations were measured during May and September, 1977 in Monterey Bay, California. This data is examined and statistical interrelationships between the parameters measured are explored. It was...
