摘要：
Aiming towards supporting recreational snorkelling in tourist beaches, we have investigated the relationship between underwater visibility range and backscattering coefficient. A series of field experiments involving simultaneous monitoring of beam transmission, backscattering and underwater horizontal black disk sighting have been conducted in various locations. The first results indicate that monitoring backscattering, even in the red part of the spectrum, can provide a useful proxy for visibility determination with an estimated accuracy of 20%.
