High Resolution Time Series Observations and Modeling of Radiance, Optical Properties, and Physical Processes as Part of RaDyO

Abstract

Overall goals of our project are to understand and predict radiance distributions, and to model surface boundary layer (SBL) conditions. The purpose of our proposed research is to obtain, analyze, and model high temporal resolution time series of radiance and irradiance, IOPs and AOPs, and physical processes in the upper oceanic layer and SBL as well as forcing by atmospheric conditions including incident solar radiation.
