Ocean colour remote sensing of the Great Barrier Reef waters

The research undertaken has developed relationships between the concentrations of optically-significant substances (phytoplankton, Colour Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM), and particulates) found in Great Barrier Reef waters and their respective inherent optical properties. Based on this knowledge, a...

description The research undertaken has developed relationships between the concentrations of optically-significant substances (phytoplankton, Colour Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM), and particulates) found in Great Barrier Reef waters and their respective inherent optical properties. Based on this knowledge, a physics-based spectral deconvolution routine was developed that successfully retrieved the concentrations of these substances from passive ocean colour observations such as those from the MODIS imaging satellite.
