– sun zenith angles (within the given range of angles) (see Table 16.7)
concentrations of chlorophyll, suspended matter, and dissolved organic carbon Table 16.7
– bottom depth
– a bottom albedo (i.e. bottom type) (see Table 16.8, which illustrates the
spectral albedo of the bottom covered with three types of substances: sand,
silt and grass); these data are automatically entered into the code from the
data file as soon as the bottom type is selected.
– At each run of the program “F_TASK exe”, the results of calculations are
entered into to files “reflect.dat” and “wv_i.dat”. The first of the files
accommodates the values of the resulting coefficient of water column reflection, R tot ðÀ0; lÞ, whereas the second file stores the respective wavelengths.
Since at each program running, the data are reentered under one and the same
name “reflect.dat”, it should be given another name (e.g. “reflect.dat”,
“reflect2.dat” etc.), and write down in your pad of notes the parameters,
with which these files were generated.
3. Prepare a concise report reflecting the principle stages of the numerical experiment, as well as the obtained results followed by the main conclusions. Based on
the files containing the results of simulations and exploring the MS Excel
facility, plot the function R tot ðÀ0; lÞ, employing any suitable program package
such as EXCEL, SURFER or else TABLECURVE.
4. Qualitatively explain the obtained dependencies based on the theory of light
transfer in turbid and absorbing media (see the present manual and the
recommended literature). In doing this, consider closely the spectral
distributions of the absorption and backscattering cross-sections for the major
CPAs.
16.3.4 Requirements to the Report
Compile a concise report reflecting the principal stages and the obtained results of
the performed exercise in form of tables and plots (graphs). Importantly, the report
should be concluded with the main corollaries. Several examples of tables and plots
(graphs) that should be generated as a result of the exercise performance are given
in Tables 16.5 and 16.6 as well as Figs. 16.1 and 16.2.
