Abstract During the Archean era (3.9–2.5 Ga ago) the earth was dominatedby an oceanic
lithosphere. Thus, understanding how life aroseand persisted in the Archean oceans …

The assumption that values of water-leaving radiance in the near-infrared (NIR) are
negligible enable aerosol radiative properties to be easily determined in the correction of …

As we understand more about the optical properties of aquatic substances and their
influences on ocean colour, it became possible to envisage the use of ocean-colour data to …

High‐altitude lakes are exposed to high fluence rates of solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR; 29–
400 nm) and contain low concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC). While in most …

A new algorithm has been developed using the ratio of water-leaving radiances at 490 and
555nm to estimate K (490), the diffuse attenuation coefficient of seawater at 490 nm. The …

Continuous records of upper water column (0–150 m) temperature profiles, spectral
distribution of down welling irradiance, and phytoplankton solar‐induced fluorescence at 25 …

We have found evidence for ultraviolet visual capabilities in a Lake Malawi cichlid fish,
Metriaclima zebra. Microspectrophotometry of single cones revealed a visual pigment with …

UV irradiance at the earth's surface is intimately related to stratospheric ozone. This gas
tends to be concentrated in the lower stratosphere (hence the notion of an ozone layer) and …

Nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHCs) are emitted into the atmosphere from the ocean's
surface. Although the oceanic contribution to the global NMHC budget is considered minor …
