Contracts - AWARD SUMMARY


SEQUOIA SCIENTIFIC, INC.


This project will result in an instrument that measures the full volume scattering function of seawater, with attention to polarization. A single, polarized laser beam will enter water. Light scattered from this beam by particles in seawater is the primary measurement. This scattered light is first split into two components - light scattered with polarization compoent parallel to the plane of scattering, and perpendicular to this plane. From these measurements, important elements of the Mueller matrix of seawater will be determined. These elements describe the fundamental properties of seawater, from which other calculations can be enabled, e.g. color of the sea, radiance distribution of seawater, and radiative transfer within the water column. The final deliverable is a design and a prototype instrument, although rights to the intellectual property of the design will remain with the company.

Projects and Jobs Information
Project Title Federal Contract
Project Status Completed
Final Project Report Submitted Yes
Project Activities Description Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (except Biotechnology)
Quarterly Activities/Project Description The instrument development project is complete. All optics and electronics have been successfully assembled and tested. Laboratory data have been acquired to verify operations. Water samples from Lake Washington have been examined successfully as a test of field worthiness. The data match predictions of Mie theory. In addition to the originally contracted Volume Scattering Function, two other parameters of value in characterizing the polarization properties of particles can now be measured. A final report has been submitted that shows these results.
