COLORS In THE OCEAN.
Various Causes For the Different Tints
of the Water.

Sky and cloud colors are often re
flected in the sea. but just as the air
has it's sunset glory so water has its
changing tints quite apart from mere
reflection.
Olive and brown lines in the waves
off the coast come from the muddy
sediment washed from the shore, as
blues arise chiefly from reflected sky.
But there are many other colOrs in the
ocean. On almost every long voyage
at sea spots of reddish brown color
are noticed at one time or another

water are examined under a micro
