Analysis of the Raman Backscattering Technique for the Remote Measurement of Subsurface Temperature and Salinity. Volume 3. Summary of Related Contracts, Publications and Reports.

Abstract

Scope of Work included: 1)Research on coastal Raman spectroscopy to determine the feasibility of obtaining Raman spectra from coastal/ocean waters for determining subsurface temperature and salinity measurements; 2) Research on the feasibility of obtaining Raman backscatter data from coastal ocean waters and laboratory tank waters for determining subsurface temperature and salinity measurements; 3) Analysis of water tank data applying the Raman technique to measure temperature and salinity in stratified water and assess the overall feasibility and limitations of the Raman technique; 4) A Development program for an airborne subsurface temperature ocean profilter (ASTOP) system; 5) Modifying existing shipborne laser Raman scattering receiver/transmitter, planning and performing integrate DL-1400 laser, shipborne experiments to obtain Raman spectra of vertical temperature gradients in concert with suitable ground truth, data processing for field test and evaluation; 6) Field demonstrations and evaluations of the boatborne laser subsurface water temperature profiling system for measuring 3-D water temperature in the near and far fields of a thermal plume; 7) Research on the laser Raman technique for the remote sensing of subsurface ocean temperature; and 8) Evaluation of a laser Raman technique for remotely measuring subsurface ocean temperature profiles.
