Effect of a Coccolithophore Bloom on the Underwater Light Field and the Albedo of the Water Column

The goal of this work is to study the influence of coccolithophore blooms on the underwater light field and albedo of the water column. A coccolithophore is a single-celled alga with spherical cells surrounded by disk-shaped calcite plates (coccolites), which produce strong light scattering. Because...
