In conjuntion with the Long Term Kelp Remaval Experiment surveys, SBC LTER monitors irradiance at both a Macrocystis removal and control plot at five coastal reef sites along mainland Santa Barbara. T
Bio-optics is a powerful approach for estimating photosynthesis rates, but has seldom been applied to sea ice, where measuring photosynthesis is a challenge. We measured absorption coefficients of chr
