Relating the Optical and Acoustical Properties of Oceanic Particles

Authors: Emmanuel Boss; MAINE UNIV AT ORONO SCHOOL OF MARINE SCIENCES
Abstract:
To develop improved predictive capabilities for the distribution of particulate material in the coastal ocean. To develop predictive models for optical properties from measurements of acoustical properties and vice versa. To understand the relationship between acoustical and optical properties of suspended particles as a function of the particle s composition, size distribution and degree of aggregation.
