Basic Investigations for Remote Sensing of Coastal Areas.

Abstract

During the quarterly period 16 July - 15 October 1976, three principle activities took place. The second year interim report was printed and distributed. Work was completed on obtaining critical optical properties of beach minerals to be used as inputs into the Beach and Environment Models. In the water modeling area, the water-atmosphere model was tested and used in a study for the Naval Coastal Systems Lab., and analysis of model results in the context of MRA development has begun. In connection with this task, a letter was sent to the Editor of Applied Optics on the reflectance of a flat ocean in the limit of zero water depth.
