The significance of light backscattering in the ocean is wide ranging, especially in optical
remote sensing. However, the complexity of natural seawater as an optical medium often …

Light and its interaction with microalgae are essential concerns in the context of microalgae
studies. The optical properties of microalgae have a great impact on the remote sensing …

A novel algorithm is presented for detecting trophic status (chlorophyll-a), cyanobacterial
blooms, surface scum and floating vegetation in coastal and inland waters using top-of …

Cyanobacterial blooms are increasingly posing a severe threat to inland waters, particularly
at the land-sea interface where toxins can be transported downstream with subsequent …

As we understand more about the optical properties of aquatic substances and their
influences on ocean colour, it became possible to envisage the use of ocean-colour data to …

Cyanobacteria, primarily of the species\textit {Nodularia spumigena}, form extensive surface
accumulations in the Baltic Sea in July and August, ranging from diffuse flakes to dense …

Passive ocean color images have provided a sustained synoptic view of the distribution of
ocean optical properties and color and biogeochemical parameters for the past 20-plus …

Suspended matter plays an important role in water quality management since it is related to
total primary production and fluxes of heavy metals and micropollutants such as PCBs …

Suspended matter in inland waters is related to total primary production and fluxes of heavy
metals and micropollutants such as PCBs. Synoptic information on suspended matter cannot …

This study analyzes relationships between concentration of suspended particles
represented by dry mass,[SPM], or area,[AC], and optical properties including particulate …
