Hello everybody!
Sea, waves ... Well, today we’ll talk about the color of water and the spread of light in depth. Have you ever asked: Why is the sea blue? The Black Sea is not the “bluest in the world.” The saturated blue color of the sea is the most beautiful and real color.
What determines the color of water in the sea? Some think that from the color of the sky. This is not entirely true.
You, of course, know that the color of water depends on the scattering of the rays of the solar spectrum by particles of water and impurities.
The color of the sea is determined not only by the properties of the water itself, but also by microscopic planktonic algae.
Algae are very important for the sea. Plankton algae absorbs red light from sunlight for photosynthesis. If there is a lot of phytoplankton in the sea, sea water takes on a greenish-azure hue. This is one of the reasons
Apparently the sea cleared during the period of quarantine measures.
