Impacts of Saharan dust on downward irradiance and photosynthetically available radiation in the water column

A semi-empirical approach was used to quantify the modification of the underwater light field in amplitude (magnitude effect) and spectral distribution (spectral effect) by different atmospheric conditions altering the incident light. The approach based on an optical model in connection with radiati...
