Ocean color measured from satellites provides daily global, synoptic views of spectral water-
leaving reflectances that can be used to generate estimates of marine inherent optical …

Imaging spectrometry of non-oceanic aquatic ecosystems has been in development since
the late 1980s when the first airborne hyperspectral sensors were deployed over lakes. Most …

We have developed and validated a robust empirical model for estimating the
concentrations of total suspended matter (TSM) in Lake Taihu (China), a large turbid inland …

Ocean color measured from satellites provides daily, global estimates of marine inherent
optical properties (IOPs). Semi-analytical algorithms (SAAs) provide one mechanism for …

Inland and coastal waterbodies are critical components of the global biosphere. Timely
monitoring is necessary to enhance our understanding of their functions, the drivers …

Total suspended solids (TSS) concentration is an important biogeochemical parameter for
water quality management and sediment-transport studies. In this study, we propose a novel …

Bio-optical models are based on relationships between the spectral remote sensing
reflectance and optical properties of in-water constituents. The wavelength range where this …

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have severe environmental and economic impacts worldwide.
Improving HAB detection is crucial because massive blooms are likely to increase in both …

Chlorophyll-a concentration (Chl-a) is a crucial parameter for monitoring the water quality in
coastal waters. The principal aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of existing Chl …

Satellites have generated extensive data of remote sensing reflectance spectra (R rs (λ))
covering diverse water classes or types across global waters. Spectral classification of …
