Utilizing the components of vector irradiance to estimate the scalar irradiance in natural waters / by J.H. Jerome, R.P. Bukata, and J.E. Bruton. : En13-5/87-148E-PDF

"This manuscript develops a model for utilizing the readily determinable and reliable measurements of upwelling and downwelling irradiance profiles to estimate the less-readily-determinable (and hitherto overly-ignored) scalar irradiance. Computer simulations of subsurface photon propagation using Monte Carlo techniques are used to arrive at the mathematical relationships uniting the vector quantities with the scalar quantity. While there is certainly a considerable amount of work yet to be performed, this model represents an essential first step in accurately estimating the amount of light available for photochemical activity"--Management Perspective.
