Detection of intense plankton blooms using the 709 nm band of the MERIS imaging spectrometer

Gower, J., King, S., Borstad, G., Brown, L.·2005·International Journal of Remote Sensing

Abstract

Intense plankton blooms (colloquially called ‘red tides’) are becoming an increasingly important phenomenon in coastal waters. This Letter shows how the European satellite sensor MERIS (Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer) can be used to detect a peak in the optical spectrum of water‐leaving radiance near 705 nm which provides a more specific response to some types of these blooms. Images and spectra are presented, derived from a MERIS scene where small areas have this response. One such area is at the site of a fish farm where bloom conditions were confirmed by surface observations and measurements. The observed spectra are compared to model results to demonstrate how these responses arise. Inspection of data from other parts of the world shows similar features in US and European waters.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
