Abstract
Spectral in-water measurements of the downward irradiance, E d and the upward irradiance, E u are sufficient in order to calculate the following spectral quantities: the irradiance ratio R, the two scalar irradiances E o and E od, the two average cosines μ and μ d, the light absorption coefficient a, the backscattering coefficient b b and the vertical attenuation coefficients for the above-mentioned downward and upward irradiances. The algorithms are valid for horizontally stratified and optically deep sea waters.
