Abstract
Based on the well-known models of optical properties of a seawater layer in the spectral range of 530–550 nm, a mathematical model of the propagation of laser radiation is proposed. The mathematical model is obtained by solving radiative transfer equation for a narrow beam using a few-parameter approximation of the scattering indicatrix of the seawater layer. The model makes it possible to determine the spatial distribution of irradiance at a given distance from the laser radiation source by the known Secchi disk depth. The results of numerical experiments for water areas with known optical properties are given.
