The CIE hue angle has significant potential in marine ecology and environment monitoring using remote sensing methods. It is calculated from the remote sensing reflectance (Rrs) of all visible bands, which serves as a comprehensive indicator of seawater radiance information and represents one of the key quantitative parameters for assessing seawater color. In this study, a remote sensing retrieval model of total suspended matter concentration (TSM) was developed using the in situ measured data acquired in the coastal waters of Qinhuangdao from 2013 to 2021. This model, based on the CIE hue angle, achieved performance metrics of R² = 0.68, MAPE=24.47%, and RMSE=2.72 mg/L, demonstrating better accuracy than traditional empirical models that utilize fewer bands. Based on this model, the monthly and interannual TSM in the coastal waters of Qinhuangdao from 2003 to 2023 were retrieved. Influenced by natural factors, such as the monsoons, the TSM in the coastal waters of Qinhuangdao generally exhibited a trend of first decreasing and then increasing from January to December. Except for certain anomalous years (2007, 2008, 2017, etc.), the overall variation process of TSM from 2003 to 2023 showed an initial increase followed by a decrease, closely related to the pollution reduction management requirements implemented by the Chinese government in different periods. The findings of this paper demonstrate that the coastal waters of Qinhuangdao have become clearer, and the ecological environment has been effectively improved as a result of the Chinese government's vigorous promotion of ecological civilization construction, adhering to the development concept that 'lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets', and by introducing the action plan for the comprehensive treatment of pollution in the Bohai Sea.
