The underwater visual field distorted by refraction for aerial animals living near the water surface is investigated by means of geometric optics. The imaging of underwater objects by one and two aerial eyes is studied. The underwater binocular image field is determined for pairs of aerial eyes placed in horizontal and vertical planes. Some possible biooptical consequences of the visual detection of underwater prey and predator by aerial animals are discussed on the basis of the structure of their distorted visual field.
利用几何光学方法研究了生活在水面附近的水生动物因折射而扭曲的水下视野。研究了单只和两只水生眼睛对水下物体的成像情况。确定了放置在水平和垂直平面上的双眼对的水下双目像场。根据其扭曲视野的结构,讨论了水生动物视觉探测水下猎物和捕食者可能产生的一些生物光学后果。
