Radiative Transfer Models

Curtis Mobley has developed several sophisticated models for oceanic radiative transfer calculations. The best known of these is Hydrolight, which is a Sequoia commercial product. In addition to Hydrolight, we have a proprietary Backward Monte Carlo model (named BMC3D) that computes underwater radiances and irradiances for three-dimensional geometries such as occur, for example, in shallow waters with sloping bottoms or spatially variable bottom reflectances. We also have a proprietary Monte Carlo code, BSFPSF, that computes beam spread functions and point spread functions, which are the foundation of underwater visibility studies. The BMC3D and BSFPSF codes are not commercial products. However, these codes are available to solve specific problems on a contract basis. Special versions of Hydrolight can also be developed for particular user needs on a contract basis.
