| Popis: | In this chapter we address some of the recent developments in marine coastal remote sensing with regards to the evaluation of water quality from space using multi-temporal data. Most chapters in this book are devoted to terrestrial applications, whereas aquatic remote sensing requires a completely different approach in terms of mission and sensor design as well as data analysis and processing. Therefore, the first section is a general introduction to marine remote sensing. Then we report recent results from remote sensing of the Baltic Sea, which is optically dominated by the absorption of light by coloured dissolved organic matter (CDOM), and during summer months, by high standing stocks of filamentous cyanobacteria. Results both from basin-wide as well as coastal applications in the north-western Baltic Sea are presented. In next section we report results from the Bay of Biscay in the north-eastern Atlantic Ocean west of France, which is an area highly influenced by river discharge and dinoflagellate blooms, and the subsequent section is about a coastal area in the eastern Beaufort Sea in the Arctic that’s influenced by a pool of CDOM. In all sections we discuss the relevance of regional remote sensing for ecological analysis and coastal management. The chapter concludes with a synthesis on merging of satellite data from different ocean colour missions and the limitations for coastal applications are discussed. |
