| visibility |
Broadly, the distance to which an observer can distinguish objects from their background. The concept may apply to both air and water. The determinants of visibility include the characteristics of the target object (shape, size, color, pattern), the angle and intensity of sunlight, the observer's eyesight, and the extent of light absorption and scattering caused by air and water contaminants.
