Optical Propagation in Sea Ice

Abstract

My goal is to develop new experimental and theoretical techniques for characterizing the optical properties of sea ice. Towards this goal, my effort has focused on measuring the beam spread function (BSF) of sea ice and applying diffusion theory to modeling light propagation and attenuation through bulk sea ice.
