Pick up the correct statement from the following:
Water molecules and salt-ions in the ocean scatter the lower wave length more
An increase in the back scattering coefficient with shorter wave length gives a deep blue colour for clear oceanic water
The ratio of the upwelling irradiance just below the surface and downwelling irradiance just above the surface is called reflectance ratio.
