Secchi disk depth: A new theory and mechanistic model for underwater visibility

2015-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Secchi disk depth (ZSD) is a measure of water transparency, whose interpretation has wide applications from diver visibility to studies of climate change. This transparency has been explained in the past 60+ years with the underwater visibility theory, the branch of the general visibility theory for visual ranging in water. However, through a thorough review of the physical processes involved in visual ranging in...
