Nils Jerlov (1909–2001) was a prominent Danish oceanographer known for his significant contributions to the study of underwater light and the optical properties of water. His work was particularly influential in understanding how light interacts with water and how it affects marine ecosystems. Jerlov developed the "Jerlov classification" system, which categorizes ocean water types based on their optical characteristics, such as color and light absorption.
