Abstract: Since the Case 1 waters have been defined and their optical properties describes as a function of the chlorophyll a concentration, continuing observations and laboratory experiment have brought new insight into the specific effects of some of the various components of the biological compartment. These results are examined,a s well as their impact on models, used as diagnostic tools for understanding, or as prognostic tools for predicting, the bulk optical properties of these waters, with a special reference to reflectance and the remote sensing of ocean color. !41
