Abstract

AbstractCoefficients of absorption of visible radiation are determined for sea ice and snow as a function of porosity of the medium and wave-length of energy refracted into it. A comparison is made between the values derived and those obtained by other investigators under similar snow conditions. A difference in results suggests a significant rôle of crystal size and orientation in the absorption properties of sea ice and snow.
