Coefficient of variation of underwater irradiance fluctuations

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

We consider underwater sunlight fluctuations in the case of a one-dimensional irregular sea surface. Several rigorous and approximate models are proposed, which make it possible to analytically treat and physically explain the dependence of the coefficient of variation of the underwater irradiance on the depth, the wind velocity, and optical parameters of the sea water.
