An algorithm is described and evaluated for determining the absorption and backscattering coefficients a(z) and bb(z) from measurements of the nadir-viewing radiance Lu(z) and downward irradiance Ed(z). The method, derived from radiative transfer theory, is similar to a previously proposed one for Eu(z) and Ed(z), and both methods are demonstrated with numerical simulations and field data. Numerical simulations and a sensitivity analysis show that good estimates of a(z) and bb(z) can be obtained if the assumed scattering phase function is approximately correct. In an experiment in Long Island Sound, estimates of a(z) derived with these methods agreed well with those obtained from an in situ reflecting tube instrument.
