What causes the Ocean Water to look Green?

in #thursdaygreen6 years ago

According to my research:

In water, absorption is strong in the red and weak in the blue, thus red light is absorbed quickly in the ocean leaving blue. Almost all sunlight that enters the ocean is absorbed, except very close to the coast. The red, yellow and green wavelengths of sunlight are absorbed by water molecules in the ocean.

I hope this simple post of mine give you enough information to understand why the ocean looks green. And that's my entry tonight for #thursdaygreen #colorchallenge of @kalemandra.

I’m glad I meet @surpassinggoogle, even just here because he’s always been good to anyone! And for that, I support him as a witness by voting him at https://steemit.com/~witnesses. I’ ll be glad if you vote him as well as your witness at https://steemit.com/~witnesses by typing "steemgigs" at the first search box. If you want to give him witness voting decisions on your behalf, visit https://steemit.com/~witnesses again and type "surpassinggoogle" in the second box as a proxy.
