Open-access Scattered Light in a Flood-plain Lake of Central Amazônia(1)

AuthorshipSCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

    Abstract

    The light intensity below the surface of Lago Castanho was recorded at 10 minute intervals and compared to the total light intensity above the water surface. Scattered light of the lake water was rather constant and it was found to be sufficiently high to support the growth of photoautotrophic organisms in the near-surface layer. Below the floating plant communities scattered light was extremely low in intensity.
