Abstract

Characteristics of atmospheric gravity wave (AGW) signatures whose packets were recorded with the ocean color scanner SeaWiFS in different ocean regions in different years were analyzed. Wave signatures appeared on distributions of hydro-optical characteristics, particularly on images of remote sensing reflectance Rrs, as contrast wave stripes, reflected the crests and troughs, quasilinear or bow-shaped. A vertical structure of wave imprints was defined on the basis of the sun light penetration into the sea z₉₀, which was inverse to the diffuse attenuation coefficient Kd_490. The nonlinearity of AGW signatures was analyzed; it was shown that the discovered structures reflected waves of depression.
