A dataset of remote-sensed Forel-Ule Index for global inland waters during 2000–2018

Classifying Natural Waters with the Forel-Ule Colour Index System: Results, Applications, Correlations and Crowdsourcing

Societal awareness of changes in the environment and climate has grown rapidly, and there is a need to engage citizens in gathering relevant scientific information to monitor environmental changes due to recognition that citizens are a potential source of critical information. The apparent colour of natural waters is one aspect of our aquatic environment that is easy to detect and an essential ...

Spectral analysis of the Forel-Ule ocean colour comparator scale

François Alphonse Forel (1890) and Willi Ule (1892) composed a colour comparator scale, with tints varying from indigo-blue to cola brown, to quantify the colour of natural waters, like seas, lakes and rivers. For each measurement, the observer compares the colour of the water above a submersed white disc (Secchi disc) with a hand-held scale of pre-defined colours. The scale can be well reprodu...

Qualitative Assessment of Inland and Coastal Waters by Using Remotely Sensed Data

The prime purpose of the research study was to elucidate the potential of remotely sensed data for estimation of water quality parameters (WQPs) in inland and coastal waters. The useful application of remotely sensed data for operational monitoring of water bodies demand for improved algorithms and methodology. The in situ hyperspectral Spectroradiometer data, water quality data and Airborne Im...

Functional annotation for the Mootha dataset FOREL analysis

217414_x_at HBA2 3040 hemoglobin, alpha 2 hemoglobin complex [SUMMARY:] The human alpha globin gene cluster located on chromosome 16 spans about 30 kb and includes the following five loci: 5'zeta pseudozeta pseudoalpha-1 alpha-2 alpha-1 -3'. The alpha-2 (HBA2) and alpha-1 (HBA1) coding sequences are identical. These genes differ slightly over the 5' untranslated regions and the introns, but the...
