Observations of solar‐induced chlorophyll a fluorescence (SIF) from spaceborne
spectrometers can advance our understanding of terrestrial and aquatic carbon cycles. Here …

Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) underestimation by global satellite algorithms in the Southern Ocean
has long been reported, reducing their accuracy, and limiting the potential for evaluating …

The editorial paper aims to highlight the main topics investigated in the Special Issue
(SI)“Water Optics and Water Colour Remote Sensing”. The outcomes of the 21 papers …

Developing a unified chlorophyll-a (Chla) inversion algorithm for cross-water types is a
significant challenge owing to the insufficiency of input features and training samples …

Phytoplankton and its most common pigment chlorophyll a (Chl-a) are important parameters
in characterizing lake ecosystems. We compared six methods to measure the concentration …

Estuaries are one of the most productive ecosystems in the world, supporting a variety of
flora and fauna. Primary productivity by phytoplankton is a rich source of organic carbon …

Fluorescence sensors mounted on unmanned underwater gliders open new ways of
investigation to detect dissolved hydrocarbons in seawater. A glider was deployed for 20 …

An algorithm of the red-peak envelop area (PEA) near 700 nm was evaluated using in situ
data during nine cruises in the Pearl River estuary and compared with other algorithms …

The inherent optical parameters play a very important role in determining the concentration
of seawater components. One such inherent parameter, the absorption coefficient (a), is …

Optical property parameters play an important role in ocean colour studies. As a key
variable, the absorption coefficient is of great significance for calculating the content of each …
