Abstract
The luminous reflectance of still water for the light from an overcast sky is found to be less than the commonly accepted value (R = 0ยท066), because such skies are brighter at the zenith than at the horizon. For a sky three times as bright at the zenith as at the horizon, the value R = 0ยท051 is computed.

Sediment cores recovered during ODP drilling operations are commonly scanned using a Minolta CM-2002 spectrophotometer to obtain spectral data. Core processing procedures aboard the JOIDES Resolution require that these spectral data be measured on wet cores. However, the effects of changing water co
Superlattices (SL) with a large difference in the refractive index between the alternating layers give rise to specular reflection from the intrinsic interfaces of the SL which proves very efficient for small incident or exit angles near the critical angle of total external reflection. This influenc
