One-parameter two-term Henyey-Greenstein phase function for light scattering in seawater

摘要

A one-parameter two-term Henyey-Greenstein (TTHG) phase function of light scattering in seawater is proposed. The original three-parameter TTHG phase function was reduced to the one-parameter TTHG phase function by use of experimentally derived regression dependencies between integral parameters of the marine phase functions. An approach to calculate a diffuse attenuation coefficient in the depth of seawater is presented. (C) 2002 Optical Society of America. [References: 22]
