Abstract
IN a paper on illumination and visual range under water1, R. Ruedy has given an account of measurements made with rectifier, or blocking-layer, photocells by some American and European workers during recent years,including particularly a summary of the important work done by Utterbackand his co-workers in eastern Pacific waters, and by Clarke and his colleagues in the western Atlantic, and a useful bibliography which, however, does not include an important paper by Le Grand2 or a paper by Atkins and Poole3.
