Inherent Optical Properties in the Benthic Environment

Abstract

The long term goals of this effort are to delineate the small scale structure of the inherent optical properties (IOP) in the benthic environment as a function of substrate and biogeochemical and physical processes. In addition we would like to determine how small scale variations in the IOP affect radiative transfer and visibility in the benthic environment.
