A method for transmitting information across a water-air interface with a ultraviolet (UV) beam, the method including emitting the UV beam in a first medium, with a first optical wireless communication device; measuring a scintillation index of the UV beam in a second medium, different from the first medium, at a second optical wireless communication device; selecting, based on a value of the scintillation index, a modulation scheme for the UV beam; and modulating the UV beam with the selected modulation scheme. The UV beam has a wavelength in a range of 100 to 400 nm.
