Ecological Cycling of Colored Dissolved Organic Matter.

摘要

The prediction of water-leaving radiance in coastal waters is strongly dependent on a quantitative prediction of the depth-dependent distribution of Colored Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM) in the water column. The goal of this project is to support and synthesize laboratory and field experiments conducted by the ONR Environmental Optics Program. Our part of this larger project is to develop a quantitative understanding of the physical, chemical, optical, and biological interactions impacting CDOM cycling, and to codify this understanding into a numerical simulation, EcoSim 2.0.
