Abstract A spectrophotometer was used to determine surface emissivity of water samples in a laboratory. The results confirm a previous field result that emissivity is independent of water composition and is approximately equal to 0.97. This value was reduced by about 3% in the presence of surface oil films but the effect of different types of oil was negligible.
