THE MOUTH OF THE BAY




We did the same collection in the mouth of the bay. We examined the data and observe the trends comparing them to the distilled water. From the graph drawn here are our observation.

SURFACE WATER
  • We saw a new trend with relatively less absorption of light, whereby this time the very violet light was the least absorbed and the blue light being the most absorbed in this case about 1% of the light is absorbed. The light at the blue and green boundary is least absorbed at about 0.3% of the light and the trend rises to the red light whereby about 0.7% is being absorbed.
BOTTOM WATER
  • This water show the most different trend from the rest of the others. This time the trend show the increase of absorption with the increase in the wavelength violet being the least absorbed and red light being the most absorbed.
