Atmospheric Optical Propagation

Abstract

This project provides a description of the propagation of optical (visible and infrared) waves in the marine atmospheric surface layer by developing and testing a comprehensive optical propagation assessment model suite. The project combines model development and field experimentation with a particular emphasis on coastal environments.
