Penetration depth is a measure of how deep light or any electromagnetic radiation can penetrate into a material. It is defined as the depth at which the intensity.
Visible colors of light penetrate differently into the ocean depths, as seen in this image depicting light penetration in Lake Superior. Longer wavelengths such as .
Description:A View of the Earth, 3rd ed. Fluence distribution within tissue and thus the treatment efficacy depends upon the illumination geometry and wavelength. Sunlight does not penetrate as deeply near the poles, so in these areas the euphotic zone may be less than 10 m deep. Each light wavelength represents a different color in the visible light spectrum Fig. Photosynthetic organisms in the ocean such as algae and phytoplankton must live in well-lit surface waters called the euphotic zone Fig.
