Does anyone know of any references to visualization of
under water scenes?  I would suspect a ray tracer with
light sources that attenuate rapidly, and some kind of
random spec generator for junk floating around in the water.
I would like to produce a movie of this, like what vort
can do.  I will look at modifying vort to simulate light
underwater.  I would like to know, again, if there has
been any research in this area, I could use to model it.
If there is interest from others, I'll summarize
and post it.
	Thanks.
