Bottom Reflectance in Ocean Color Satellite Remote Sensing for Coral Reef Environments

Most ocean color algorithms are designed for optically deep waters, where the seafloor has little or no effect on remote sensing reflectance. This can lead to inaccurate retrievals of inherent optical properties (IOPs) in optically shallow water environments. Here, we investigate in situ hyperspectral bottom reflectance signatures and their separability for coral reef waters, when observed at t...

Effect of spectral band numbers on the retrieval of water column and bottom properties from ocean color data.

Using an optimization technique, we derived subsurface properties of coastal and oceanic waters from measured remote-sensing reflectance spectra. These data included both optically deep and shallow environments. The measured reflectance covered a spectral range from 400 to 800 nm. The inversions used data from each 5-, 10-, and 20-nm contiguous bands, including Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Se...

Estimating chlorophyll a concentrations from remote-sensing reflectance in optically shallow waters

A multi-spectral classification and quantification technique is developed for estimating chlorophyll a concentrations, Chl, in shallow oceanic waters where light reflected by the bottom can contribute significantly to the above-water remote-sensing reflectance spectra, Rrs(k). Classification criteria for determining bottom reflectance contributions for shipboard Rrs(k) data from the west Florid...

Application of the Support Vector Regression Method for Turbidity Assessment with MODIS on a Shallow Coral Reef Lagoon (Voh-Koné-Pouembout, New Caledonia)

Particle transport by erosion from ultramafic lands in pristine tropical lagoons is a crucial problem, especially for the benthic and pelagic biodiversity associated with coral reefs. Satellite imagery is useful for assessing particle transport from land to sea. However, in the oligotrophic and shallow waters of tropical lagoons, the bottom reflection of downwelling light usually hampers the us...

A Statistical Algorithm for Estimating Chlorophyll Concentration in the New Caledonian Lagoon

Spatial and temporal dynamics of phytoplankton biomass and water turbidity can provide crucial information about the function, health and vulnerability of lagoon ecosystems (coral reefs, sea grasses, etc.). A statistical algorithm is proposed to estimate chlorophyll-a concentration ([chl-a]) in optically complex waters of the New Caledonian lagoon from MODIS-derived “remote-sensing” reflectance...
