Abstract
As optical systems that make use of optical phase and optical phase rate become more common in underwater applications, so wiLl the need for a more complete understanding of the optical refractive variability of this medium. This paper provides an overview of the nature of instruments that are availabLe for this investigation and describes the preparations that are being made at the Naval Underwater Systems Center for the measurement of this physical property of the ocean.
