Get to know 3 useful concepts for becoming a wiz at physics (a phys-wiz, if you like...?) On this episode we explore how light behaves in water by discussing light scattering, light absorption, and biological florescence. We're joined by podcast regular Ryan Vandermeulen from NASA Goddard Space Flight Centre's Ocean Ecology Laboratory.
