Light Scattering By Pure Seawater At Subzero Temperatures
We found that the Hu et al. model for light scattering by pure seawater [Deep Sea Research Part I, 146, 103–109 (2019)] can be applied to waters with sub-zero temperature, which was outside the applicable range of the original equation for the refractive index of water that is used in the model.
