  • Abstract
    Imaging of film slicks on the sea surface under different observational conditions is analyzed. Variations of the sea surface radiance in slicks are calculated using a simple model of wind wave damping due to films and an optical model of wave imaging due to a) sky light reflected from the sea surface and b) sun radiation backscattered by subsurface water layers. Criteria of “visibility” of slicks are formulated.
