  • Title: Effects of Raman scattering across the visible spectrum in clear ocean water: a Monte Carlo study.
    Author: Stavn RH.
    Journal: Appl Opt; 1993 Nov 20; 32(33):6853-63. PubMed ID: 20856539.
    Abstract:
    Raman-scattering activity in clear ocean waters is documented for the visible spectrum from Monte Carlo simulations. The Raman-scattering activity has a significant effect on the upwelling irradiance value in air and on the submarine light field at the water surface across the visible spectrum. A reduction in Raman-scattering activity at 440 nm that is due to Fraunhofer lines at the Raman source wavelengths is also demonstrated. At wavelengths greater than 500 nm, Raman scattering makes a significant contribution to the in-water light field at depth.
