Abstract
SUMMARY Further measurements have been made of the penetration of daylight into the sea near Plymouth, photometers containing both vacuum and gas-filled photo-electric cells being used. The effect of obliquity of illumination on the sensitivity of these photometers was large, and has been allowed for as far as possible. The sensitivity of the vacuum cell used in the sea attained its maximum at a wave length of about that of the gas-filled cell at about 4,350. The sensitivity of both to wave lengths greater than 5,500 was small.Keywords
