Light and Photosynthesis • Light in the Ocean • Intensity • Color • Inherent Optical Properties • Apparent Optical Properties • Remote Sensing • Photosynthesis • Light Absorption • Light Reactions • Dark Reactions
For satellite remote sensing the wavelength is the key to what you want to measure. c = l/u e = hu = hc/l
2500 mmol photons m-2 s-1 5.0 mmol photons m-2 s-1 I) Light Irradiance Intensity z1 Ed1 Z (meters) Dz • Because of • Lambert Beers Law • the ocean is dim z2 Ed2 • Plant life is • dependent on light Lambert Beers Law Ed2 = Ed1e-Dz*Kd 3) The 1% light level for the majority of the is 100 m or less?
Early Optics Alexander the Great
The color of the sea shows a great deal of variability from the deep violet-blue of the open ocean to degrees of green and brown in coastal regions. Before the advent of sensitive optical instruments, color was determined by visual comparison against standard reference standards such as the Forel Ule Color scale.
Your future will include robots patrolling the waters for you as optical instruments are now small

What kind of measurements are there? Inherent Optical Properties: Those optical properties that are fundamental to the piece of water, not dependent on the geometric structure of the light field. (absorption, scattering, attenuation) Apparent Optical Properties: Those optical properties that are fundamental to the piece of water and are dependent on the geometric structure of the light field. (light intensity, reflectance)
Why IOP Measurements? • Absorption, a color • Scattering, b clarity • Beam attenuation, c (transmission) a + b = c The IOPs tell us something about the particulate and dissolved substances in the aquatic medium; how we measure them determines what we can resolve
