Particulate Backscattering Spectrum (bp)

Input

  1. Absorption as computed from AC9 (a)

  2. Corrected attenuation as computed from AC9 (beam_attenuation_TS)

Ancillary Requirements

  1. None.

MATLAB m-file

DeriveIOPs.m

Output

The particulate backscattering spectrum with values for each of the nine AC9 wavelengths. In the output NetCDF file, this is stored as one variable, bp.
