Abstract The method of measuring the optical scattering co- efficient of the ocean by means of a laser beam from a platform above the ocean surface in which an ocean penetrating beam is swept across the direct path of travel to the surface of the ocean and through it to the ocean bottom to be back-reflected to the ocean surface and to a receiver on the platform, characterised by changing the field of view to alternately use a small and a large field of view and calculating from the larger field of view an estimate of the absorption coefficient and from the smaller field of view an estimate of beam attenuation co- efficient.
