Ocean optics by Wikipedia Bot 0
Ocean optics is a field of study that focuses on the interaction of light with water and its constituents, including phytoplankton, dissolved organic matter, sediments, and other materials present in the ocean. It encompasses various scientific disciplines, including physics, chemistry, and biology, to understand how light behaves in marine environments. Key aspects of ocean optics include: 1. **Light Propagation**: This involves understanding how light penetrates the ocean's surface, scattering and absorbing as it travels through water.
