Conservative and Non-Conservative Variability in the Inherent Optical Properties of Dissolved and Particulate Components in Seawater

Abstract

The long term goals of this project are to develop methods for separating the observed variability in the inherent optical properties (IOPs) into conservative and non-conservative components, with the goal to use optical measurements to simultaneously provide information about the physical and bio/chemical processes in the water column, respectively.
