The need for more effective environmental monitoring of the open and coastal ocean has
recently led to notable advances in satellite ocean color technology and algorithm research …

After the successful Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS, 1978–1986) demonstration that
quantitative estimations of geophysical variables such as chlorophyll a and diffuse …

We propose a normalized difference chlorophyll index (NDCI) to predict chlorophyll-a (chl-a)
concentration from remote sensing data in estuarine and coastal turbid productive (case 2) …

Remote sensing algorithms that use red and NIR bands for the estimation of chlorophyll-a
concentration [Chl] can be more effective in inland and coastal waters than algorithms that …

Intensifying pressure on global aquatic resources and services due to population growth
and climate change is inspiring new surveying technologies to provide science-based …

Phytoplankton photosynthesis links global ocean biology and climate-driven fluctuations in
the physical environment. These interactions are largely expressed through changes in …

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 …

Estimation of chlorophyll-a concentrations (Chla in mgm− 3) in optically complex waters
using remote sensing is difficult because traditional empirical (eg, OCx blue/green band …

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) in the East China Sea (ECS) have been reported every year in
the last decade, and satellite remote sensing has often been used to study the bloom size …

Recent and forthcoming launches of a plethora of ocean color radiometry sensors, coupled
with increasingly adopted free and open data policies are expected to boost usage of …
