Availability of an equation to evaluate error by optical path discretization in radiative transfer computation based on the successive order of scattering method

The availability of an equation to evaluate the influence of multiple scattering in the single scattering process corresponding to a layer of arbitrary optical thickness was established. In order to confirm the validity of this equation, the radiance distribution in this layer was computed using a plane–parallel layer model based on the successive order of scattering method. The relative errors in a radiance distribution computed were evaluated as a function of optical thickness by the derived equation. It was shown that this equation provides a theoretical background for determining layer thickness using the plane–parallel layer model.     

Spectral radiometric measurements of the temperature and radiation capacity of a rough sea surface

The results of radiometric remote simultaneous field measurements of the temperature and radiation capacity of the upper layer of the sea-surface temperature film 0.2 mm thick are presented. The measurements were conducted in the presence of wind waves and were characterized by an increased accuracy, which was achieved owing to the use of measurements of the intensity of radio radiation from the surface illuminated by radiation of a specified varying power. In our experiment, this illumination was provided by the radio radiation of the atmosphere, whose radiance temperature varies significantly, depending on the frequency at the slope of the absorption band of molecular oxygen (52.5–56 GHz). As a result, the radiation capacity and temperature of the skin layer were determined from the correlation dependence between the radiance temperatures of the surface and atmosphere measured by a radiometer-spectrometer in a number of channels separated in frequency. The radiance temperatures of the sea and atmosphere were measured at four frequencies of the 5-mm spectral range (53–55 GHz) on a vertical polarization. For absolute measurements, a calibration method was developed on the basis of a blackbody disk and two reflecting mirrors with the same solid angles. The measured values of the radiation capacity are variable and substantially smaller than the theoretical values determined by the models accepted for the permittivity of water and sea roughness. A possible cause of this can be the change of the permittivity of water in a thin surface layer of the temperature film (0.2 mm) due to the concentration of gases dissolved in water and surface-active substances within this layer.     

On the long-term variability of normalized radiance of the Black Sea

Basin-wide distributions of normalized spectral radiances averaged over different time periods were plotted based on the estimates of the average radiance for 20 × 20 km squares in 482 digital images of the Black Sea obtained with a SeaWiFS color scanner in 1998–2004. Significant distinctions of the annual average distributions in the amplitude, localization, and configuration of basin-scale inhomogeneities allowed us to consider these distributions as yearly spectral-radiance portraits of the Black Sea that reflect specific features of the annual behavior of the hydrometeorological conditions over the Black Sea region. Seasonal features of the radiance distributions related to the wind field were discovered. Substantial interannual variability in the errors of the standard atmospheric correction algorithm resulting in an underestimation of the shortwave radiances were revealed. It is shown that the river discharge and the stratification of the layer sensed substantially influence the yearly spectral-radiance portraits of the Black Sea.     

Third order contribution to the wave-making resistance of a ship at finite depth of water

This paper presents a potential based boundary element method for solving a nonlinear free surface flow problem for a ship moving with a uniform speed in finite depth of water. The free surface boundary condition is linearized by the systematic method of perturbation in terms of a small parameter up to third order. The surfaces are discretized into flat quadrilateral elements and the influence coefficients are calculated by Morino's analytical formula. Dawson's upstream finite difference operator is used in order to satisfy the radiation condition. The second order solution gives better result than the first or third order solution. So the present method with the second order solution can be adopted as a powerful tool for the hydrodynamic analysis of the thin ship in finite depth of water.     

利用地物光谱仪数据研究水汽对太阳辐射的吸收

Indication of bottom transport in shallow marine regions based on the data of satellite ocean color scanners

By example of a testing area in the northern Caspian Sea, a case study has been conducted to examine the feasibility of indication of near-bottom water transport from the data of ocean color scanners (OCS) for the basins whose bottom is shallower than the lower limit of the water-leaving radiance origination layer. The testing area has provided the desirable diversity of radiance origination conditions owing to an isolated underwater ridge. Based on the archived materials of the OCS SeaWiFS for 2000–2004, statistics of spectral normalized water-leaving radiances of the testing area have been computed. Hypothetically, the displacements of a radiance maximum in reference to the ridge were due to different mechanisms of interaction of water motions with bottom relief and bottom sediments. The correspondence between the patterns of radiance maximum displacements and the current notions of general water transport in the vicinity of the testing area has been established. Hopefully, the archived data of OCSs can be useful for revealing the patterns of seasonal and interannual variability of the near-bottom water transport at shallows with favorable bottom properties.

The black water around the Changjiang (Yangtze) Estuary in the spring of 2003

The Changjiang (Yangtze) Estuary is located in the East China Sea shelf with shallow water. Affected by the tide mixing and the runoff of the Changjiang River and the Qiantang River, the turbidity is very high. Generally, the water-leaving radiance is high in the turbid water because of the large particle scattering. Based on the in-situ data and ocean color remote sensing data of SeaWiFS, it was found that there was a black water region with the normalized water-leaving radiances less than 0.5 mW/(cm2·μm2·...     

Correlation of the distribution of normalized spectral radiances as an indicator of the features of water exchange in the Black Sea

A set of 128 images of the Black Sea obtained using the SeaWiFS color scanner data in 1998–2004 was processed to estimate the new capabilities of indication of the vertical inhomogeneity of the upgoing normalized radiance. The basin of the sea was divided into 430 frames with a size of 30 × 30 km. Correlation coefficients R between all the spectral radiances were calculated for all the frames of all the images. The correlation between the radiance distributions at 490 and 670 nm was most sensitive to the conditions of the radiance formation. This allowed us to find the situations in which the variations in the shortwave and long wave radiances in the frame appear opposite and are characterized by estimates R < ?0.7. It was shown that such distributions are indicators of the water exchange between the coastal and open sea areas. They are caused by a special optical stratification during the events of such exchange. A conclusion is made about the prospective of applying the estimates of the correlation of spectral radiances for diagnosis of the water exchange based on the current and archive materials of ocean color scanners.     

First retrieval of data regarding spatial distribution of Asian dust aerosol from the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager

Aerosol optical thickness (AOT) was retrieved from the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) on board the Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) for the first time. AOT values were retrieved over the ocean at a spatial scale of 0.5 × 0.5 km² by using the look-up table (LUT)-based separation technique. The radiative transfer model (RTM) was used for different models of atmosphere-ocean environmental conditions, taking into account the realistic variability of scattering and absorption. Ocean surface properties affected by whitecaps and pigment content were also taken into account. The results show that the radiance observed by the GOCI amounts to only 5% of the radiation that penetrated the ocean and, consequently, 95% of the radiation is scattered in the atmosphere or reflected at the ocean surface in the visible wavelengths longer than 0.6 ìm. Within these wavelengths, radiance variations at the top of atmosphere (TOA) due to pigment variations are within 10%, while the radiance variation due to wind speed is considerably higher. For verification of GOCI-retrieved AOTs, comparison between GOCI and ground-based sunphotometer measurement at Gosan, Korea (126.10°E, 33.23°N)) showed good correlation (r = 0.99). The GOCI observations obtained by using the proposed technique showed promising results for the daily monitoring of atmospheric aerosol loading as well as being useful for environmental supervisory authorities.     

A simulation of radiation imagery for ocean color satellite

The ocean color satellite is mainly applied to measure the water constituents such as chlorophyll, suspended material and yellow substance. The leaving water radiance is very small part of the total radiance arrival at the sensor about 3%-15%,and depends on the properties of the orbit and sensor. Before the satellite is launched on the orbit, it needs to simulate the radiation imagery in order to evaluate the quality and availability of the satellite data.
If the parameters of satellite orbit, the properties of sensor as well as the characteristics of the atmosphere and water have been known, the radiation scattered by air molecule and aerosol, reflected solar radiation, water leaving and total radiation arriving at the sensor can be simulated by the models of radiation transfer in the atmosphere, air/water and subsurface water. In this paper, the mechanism, models and procedures of the radiation simulation are first discussed and employed to simulate a series of imageries for the Chinese satellites FY-lA, FY-1B, and ROCSAT-1 (Taiwan, China), and American satellite Ses STAR. Their results show that the solar irradiance arrived at water surface and the sun glitter mainly affect the quality and availability of satellite data, which depend on the orbit properties. Finally, some suggestions are proposed to improve the quality and availability of a:ean color satellite data.

Modeling of volume reverberation in the ray approximation

We propose a numerical model for the evaluation of the three-dimensional scattering of sound in the sea. The model is based on the construction of ray patterns both for the primary and secondary (scattered) radiation. The intensity of secondary radiation is expressed via the coefficient of backward volume scattering interpreted as the fraction of backward-scattered acoustic energy per unit length of the primary ray. It is shown that, in the first approximation, it suffices to consider the secondary rays repeating the paths of the primary rays in the opposite direction. The attenuation of the intensity of sound along the paths of the primary and secondary rays is taken into account. The results of numerical analysis of the reverberation signal as a function of time are presented for various conditions (different depths of immersion of the antenna and widths of the directional diagram and the presence of sound-scattering layers). The proposed approach can be used for the purposes of modeling of the surface and bottom reverberation and for the solution of the inverse problems of underwater acoustics. __________ Translated from Morskoi Gidrofizicheskii Zhurnal, No. 5, pp. 50–58, September–October, 2007.

Wind effects on sub-tidal currents in Puget Sound

Wind effects on sub-tidal currents are studied using current meter records obtained at six moorings across the main basin of Puget Sound. High correlations between wind speeds and currents are found near the surface and at mid-depths of about 100 m. Empirical Orthogonal Function analysis applied to the axial currents in 1984 and 1985 shows that mode 1, containing over 60% of the variance, is highly correlated with wind speed even without any near surface current records. When near surface stratification is strong, direct wind effects are limited to the upper 30 m with counter currents in the lower layer indicating a baroclinic response. The transport in the lower layer almost balances the transport in the upper layer. When near surface stratification is weak, direct wind effects on currents can be detected to about 100 m. In this case, there is no clear and consistent depth at which one can separate the upper from the lower layer. Time series show that the acceleration in the surface layer initially increases in the same direction as the wind when the wind starts blowing, but it reaches a maximum, starts decreasing, and eventually changes to the opposite direction (decelerates) while the wind continues to blow in one direction. Results of a continuously stratified normal mode model and estimations from the observations suggest that friction at solid boundaries is a major cause of these phenomena. The model shows that modal currents of normal modes 2 and 3 are as important as mode 1, although the resultant vertical structure of total current shows a two-layer type pattern with only one zero crossing. The effect of the baroclinic pressure gradient is only apparent at low frequencies and among lower modes.     

2003年春季长江口海域黑水现象研究

长江口海域处于东海大陆架,水深较浅,受长江、钱塘江入海径流及潮汐搅拌的影响,水体浑浊度高,属于典型的二类水体。在浑浊二类水体由于水体中悬浮颗粒的散射作用,离水辐亮度通常较大洋清洁水体的大。通过分析2003年春季黄海、东海二类水体光学试验数据和同时段SeaWiFS卫星遥感数据,发现在长江口东南海域有一个归一化离水辐亮度极小的黑水区域,它在412~670nm波长的归一化离水辐亮度均小于0.5mW/(cm2·μm·sr)。利用现场实测的水体固有光学特性参数(色素吸收系数、非色素颗粒吸收系数、黄色物质吸收系数、颗粒散射系数、颗粒后向散射系数等)和水色要素浓度数据,分析了长江口海域黑水现象的机制,结果表明,长江口外黑水现象主要是由于水体后向散射系数值极小引起的,而造成颗粒后向散射系数值极小的原因主要有两种,一是颗粒物含量低,二是颗粒后向散射率的值小。黑水区浮游植物色素吸收所占的比例较高,大粒径的有机颗粒(浮游植物)导致黑水区域的颗粒后向散射率的值偏小。长江口海域黑水是在特定的颗粒物低含量及颗粒后向散射率极小的条件下出现的光学现象。
