Light in shallow waters
Michael P. Lesser, coordinating editor
Zvy Dubinski and Marlon Lewis, editors

This special issue is a compilation of papers from several different research initiatives on optics and remote sensing in shallow coastal environments. The original inspiration for it was the US Office of Naval Research-Coastal Benthic Optical Properties program. We thank authors from that program who submitted manuscripts as well as scientists who contributed papers resulting from similar programs in other parts of the world. The overall content of the issue was shaped by constructive comments received from the ASLO Board of Directors. The final product is the result of the efforts of many excellent reviewers, the guest editors, Marlon Lewis and Zvy Dubinsky, and the L&O editorial staff. A special thank you is also in order for André Morel, who assisted in various ways with the editorial process.

The publication of this special issue was supported by the US Office of Naval Research-Environmental Optics Program.
