PhysicsTest of Q(o, , ) portion of
Morel, Antoine, Gentili (2002)f/Q algorithm
• Tests Q through the measurement of the upwelling radiance distribution, as:
Q (o, , ) = Eu/L(o, , ) • A single measurement of the upwelling spectral radiance
distribution gives Eu [through integration of Lu (o, , ) ] and L (o, , ), with the same instrument, so is an accurate method to get
Q (o, , ).Note that f is not available, as it requires simultaneous measurement
of Ed, a and bb.

Physics Previous experimental tests
• Morel, Voss, and Gentili, 1995 (JGR) used the first generation electro-optic RADS system. One Chl value (0.3 mg/m3) and o from 30-80o.
• Voss and Morel, 2005 (L&O) used the next generation RADS-II. Chl from 0.2 to 10 mg/m3, but o only from 30-40o deg.
• Both from cruises off of San Diego and into Gulf of California, rather restricted geographically.

(2002) model features• Index is Chl, o, v, and
– Important that Chl is just a convenient index into the tables…could do something else, but this works.
• Includes Raman scattering (inelastic process).• Radiance distribution depends critically on the phase
function.– Includes a phase function which varies with Chl, not just
a single particle phase function to match observed bb variation with Chl.
– Calculation uses spheroids, and not spheres (which can be anomalous in the backscattering direction.

Physics Data reduction
• Process radiance distribution images according to Voss and Zibordi (1989).– Immersion test critical in underwater
measurement, with curved windows not straight forward.
• Additional steps to locate geometry required.

Physics Conclusions• To date, within the accuracy/environmental noise
of data, Morel et al. 2002 model works.• Need more data in Chl range from 0.4 to 10
mg/m3.• Need another alternative in Case II waters, have
more turbid data sets to look at this problem.• Polarization? Have modified NuRADS to provide
upwelling polarization data (see poster by Souidia et al.)
