  2. Scattering parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scattering_parameters

    Note the format of the parameter notation SXYab, where "S" stands for scattering parameter or S-parameter, "X" is the response mode (differential or common), "Y" is the stimulus mode (differential or common), "a" is the response (output) port and b is the stimulus (input) port. This is the typical nomenclature for scattering parameters.

  3. Electromagnetic absorption by water - Wikipedia

    The spectrum of ice is similar to that of liquid water, with peak maxima at 3400 cm −1 (2.941 μm), 3220 cm −1 (3.105 μm) and 1620 cm −1 (6.17 μm) [14] In both liquid water and ice clusters, low-frequency vibrations occur, which involve the stretching (TS) or bending (TB) of intermolecular hydrogen bonds (O–H•••O).

  4. Optical properties of water and ice - Wikipedia

    However, water and ice absorb in infrared and close the infrared atmospheric window, thereby contributing to the greenhouse effect. The absorption spectrum of pure water is used in numerous applications, including light scattering and absorption by ice crystals and cloud water droplets , theories of the rainbow , determination of the single ...

  5. Underwater acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater_acoustics

    Output of a computer model of underwater acoustic propagation in a simplified ocean environment. A seafloor map produced by multibeam sonar. Underwater acoustics (also known as hydroacoustics) is the study of the propagation of sound in water and the interaction of the mechanical waves that constitute sound with the water, its contents and its boundaries.

  6. Freshwater environmental quality parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freshwater_environmental...

    Freshwater environmental quality parameters are those chemical, physical and biological parameters that can be used to characterise a freshwater body. Because almost all water bodies are dynamic in their composition, the relevant quality parameters are typically expressed as a range of expected concentrations.

  7. Network analyzer (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_analyzer_(electrical)

    A VNA is a test system that enables the RF performance of radio frequency and microwave devices to be characterised in terms of network scattering parameters, or S parameters. The diagram shows the essential parts of a typical 2-port vector network analyzer (VNA). The two ports of the device under test (DUT) are denoted port 1 (P1) and port 2 ...

  8. Color of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_of_water

    In extremely pure water—as is found in mountain lakes, where scattering from particles is very low—the scattering from water molecules themselves also contributes a cyan color. [9] [10] Diffuse sky radiation due to Rayleigh scattering in the atmosphere along one's line of sight gives distant objects a cyan or light azure tint. This is most ...

  9. Brillouin scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brillouin_scattering

    The beam may display Brillouin scattering as a result of those vibrations, usually in the direction opposite the incoming beam, a phenomenon known as stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS). For liquids and gases, the frequency shifts typically created are of the order of 1–10 GHz resulting in wavelength shifts of ~1–10 pm in the visible light .
