“…Reflected sky radiance as well as the thermal emission of the sea have to be multiplied by the transmissivity of the path between sensor and sea surface to address loss of energy due to scattering and absorption. Different models exist for sea backgrounds (Wollenweber, 1988;Wilf and Manor, 1984;Levesque and St.Germain, 1990;Ben Shalom et al, 1981, Hughes andRichter, 1990). Most of these models address the viewing process as a whole, only the approaches of Hughes and of Ben Shalom are on a statistical basis.…”

Thermal background models are of particular interest in many fields of science and technology, e.g. meteorology, hydrology, agricultural management, remote sensing and military applications. The complexity of the different modeling strategies varies to a considerable degree from very simplistic approaches for real-time applications to very complex research grade models. This paper summarizes the important physical and biological processes and introduces different modeling concepts. It pinpoints areas of lacking knowledge and shows possible solutions to the problems.
