title: Relative Water Transparency and Color in the Northern Part of the Tropical Atlantic
abstract: By now a large data array, which made it possible to construct maps of the depth distribution of Secchi disk visibility in the World Ocean, has been accumulated. However, the updating of this database remains urgent, since there is not enough data for constructing reliable maps in some areas of the ocean. This is also related to the tropical area of the Atlantic Ocean, in particular. In the present article the statistically reliable maps of depth distribution of Secchi disk visibility Zwhite (re
