Abstract

The attenuation coeflScient of sea water is derived from a formula which is more
general than the Lambert's equation. The mean attenuation coefficient which the Secchi
disc observations give is obtained therefrom. The constant of the Secchi disc is discussed
in the light of the relationship developed. The theoretical concept developed here, falls
in accordance with the expressions based on field data.
