Abstract
Optical oceanography or Marine optics is the study of light propagation in the ocean surface through absorption or scattering processes. Marine bio-optics is the term used when the absorption and scattering by particles and dissolved substances are of biological origin. Ocean color is defined as the spectral variation of the water leaving radiance that can be related to the optical constituents present in the medium (Jerlov, 1976; Morel, 1974). Visible Spectral radiometry or Ocean colour remote sensing is the study on spectral signals of optically active materials using satellite observations. When sunlight reaches the upper water column or the photic zone of the ocean surface, the light propagation is determined by the optical properties of seawater.
