SeaRad, A Sea Radiance Prediction Code.

Abstract

Sea radiance is modeled by combining the methods of geometrical optics with the Cox-Munk statistical description of ocean capillary waves. The model is incorporated into the atmospheric transmittance radiance code MODTRAN2 to provide numerical sea radiance predictions.
