Ocean color as measured from satellite is a When the water looks especially green, it means there are a prominent tool in modern oceanography. lot of microscopic algae (phytoplankton) growing near the Satellite sensors record reflected light from the surface. surface of the water. Different colors represent how light interacts with different parTcles in the water. When the water looks murky and brown it means there is sediment, or mud, suspended in the water. Our eyes can do the same thing! People have been observing and recording the color of the water from the shore for centuries. Changing colors reflect the changing parTcles in the water.

These measures have been applied to study water quality, and they speciﬁcally can be used to study algal blooms. Blooms are a natural phenomenon that, due to anthropogenic activities, appear to have increased in frequency, intensity, and geographic distribution. This paper aims to provide a systematic analysis of research on remote sensing of algal blooms during 1999–2019 via bibliometric technique. This study aims to reveal the limitations of current studies to analyse climatic variability eﬀect.

An Overview of the Seawifs Project and Strategies for Producing a Climate Research Quality Global Ocean Bio-Optical Time Series
ARTICLE IN PRESS Deep-Sea Research II 51 (2004) 5–42 An overview of the SeaWiFS project andstrategies for producing a climate research quality global ocean bio-optical time series Charles R. McClain*, Gene C. Feldman, Stanford B. Hooker Code 970.2, Office for Global Carbon Studies, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, MD 20771, USA Received1 April 2003; accepted19 November 2003 Abstract The Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) Project Office was formally initiated at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in 1990. Seven years later, the sensor was launched by Orbital Sciences Corporation under a data- buy contract to provide 5 years of science quality data for global ocean biogeochemistry research. To date, the SeaWiFS program has greatly exceeded the mission goals established over a decade ago in terms of data quality, data accessibility andusability, ocean community infrastructure development,cost efficiency, andcommunity service. The SeaWiFS Project Office andits collaborators in the scientific community have madesubstantial contributions in the areas of satellite calibration, product validation, near-real time data access, field data collection, protocol development, in situ instrumentation technology, operational data system development, and desktop level-0 to level-3 processing software. One important aspect of the SeaWiFS program is the high level of science community cooperation andparticipation. This article summarizes the key activities andapproaches the SeaWiFS Project Office pursuedto define,achieve, and maintain the mission objectives. These achievements have enabledthe user community to publish a large andgrowing volume of research such as those contributedto this special volume of Deep-Sea Research. Finally, some examples of major geophysical events (oceanic, atmospheric, andterrestrial) capturedby SeaWiFS are presentedto demonstratethe versatility of the sensor.

Such red tide events occur globally, across latitudes and ocean ecoregions. Satellite observations can be an effective tool for tracking and investigating red tides and have great potential for informing strategies to minimize their impacts on coastal fisheries. However, previous satellite- based red tide detection algorithms have been mostly conducted over short time scales and within relatively small areas, and have shown significant differences from actual field data, highlighting a need for new, more accurate algorithms to be developed. In this study, we present the newly developed normalized red tide index (NRTI). The NRTI uses Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) data to detect red tides by observing in situ spectral characteristics of red tides and sea water using spectroradiometer in the coastal region of Korean Peninsula during severe red tide events. The bimodality of peaks in spectral reflectance with respect to wavelengths has become the basis for developing NRTI, by multiplying the heights of both spectral peaks.

Specialization: Water Resources and Environmental Management SUPERVISORS: Dr. Ir. Mhd, S., Salama Prof. Dr. Ing., W., Verhoef THESIS ASSESSMENT BOARD: Dr. Ir., C.M.M., Mannaerts (Chair) Dr, D.M., Harper (External Examiner, Department of Biology - University of Leicester – UK) DISCLAIMER This document describes work undertaken as part of a programme of study at the Faculty of Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation of the University of Twente. All views and opinions expressed therein remain the sole responsibility of the author, and do not necessarily represent those of the Faculty. ABSTRACT Euphotic zone depth is a fundamental measurement of water clarity in water bodies. It is determined by the water constituents like suspended particulate matter, dissolved organic matter, phytoplankton, mineral particles and water molecules, which attenuate solar radiation as it transits down a water column. Primary production is at its maximum within the euphotic zone because there is sufficient Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) for photosynthesis to take place. The study was conducted in Lake Naivasha, Kenya. Rich in biodiversity, it supports a thriving fishery, an intensive flower-growing industry and geothermal power generation, thereby contributing significantly to local and national economic development.
