“…Moreover, various other features can be observed in Figure 4 (a1 and a2), such as Chl-a absorption in the blue (400 -500 nm) and red (600 -700 nm) regions and phycocyanin absorption near 620 nm, which characterizes the presence of these microorganisms in the BBHR. A progressive increase in TSM concentrations tends to generate an increase in R rs in the NIR range (Lodhi, 1998), as observed between 780 nm and 820 nm in some curves in Figure 4 (a1) and in all curves in Figure 4 (a2). This feature can be related to particles in aquatic systems because of the combination of the scattering by particles and the negligible scattering contribution from other OACs (Ritchie et al, 1976;Rundquist et al, 1996).…”

“…These results indicated that OLCI will be a useful tool for the monitoring of the water quality in the BBHR aquatic system. Furthermore, these results demonstrate that spectral bands in the NIR range are able to accurately estimate the TSM concentrations, as there was a shift in the R rs peak in the NIR region with increasing TSM concentration (Lodhi et al, 1998). Although the OLI sensor has a spectral band in this range, water molecule absorption causes interference in the spectral signal registered by this sensor.…”

“…However, in the presence of high concentrations of inorganic sediments, the reflectance signal can be higher in the NIR and even SWIR bands. 15,37,38 The "other inner shelf waters" class was likely characterized by the dominance of phytoplankton, with higher reflectance in the green band (B2), and lower in the chlorophyll a absorption bands (B1 and B3). The "plume and inner shelf waters" class was likely characterized by a mixture of the sediment plume and phytoplankton dominated coastal waters, with higher reflectance in the green, and secondary in the red band.…”

Abstract. Coastal zones are influenced by oceanic, atmospheric, and continental forces, which make them highly vulnerable to climate and anthropogenic changes. The Paraíba do Sul River (PSR) Estuary (Brazil), is especially affected by intensive industrial, urban, and rural activities, along its catchment area. Few works, though, have been done concerning the impacts of these changes. Remote sensing is, thus, an important and unique tool to assess the past scenes for a temporal analysis. The present work aimed to analyze spatial-temporal trends of the PSR plume from 1985 to 2009, using Landsat 5 TM images. Two spectral classification methods were used to map the river plume: maximum likelihood and spectral linear mixture analysis (SLMA). The images corresponded to the months of greatest river discharge, totalizing 11 cloud-free images. Geographical, radiometric, and atmospheric corrections were applied to the five spectral bands used for the classification. Both methods showed good results, however the SLMA provided more information of the water constituent's distribution. The sediment river plume and inner shelf phytoplankton dominated waters showed a negative trend associated with a diminishing of the river discharge. Further works concern in situ validation of the classifications, biooptical modeling, and more investigations of climate and anthropogenic changes on the PSR.C 2011 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).

“…For the above reasons, monitoring suspended sediment in surface water is important. Traditional methods of data collection and analysis, including water sampling, filtering and measuring dry weight, are time consuming, labor intensive and provide only point data (Lodhi and Rundquist, 1998).…”

Monitoring of suspended sediment is important to maintain water quality and geomorphologic balance. Traditional methods based on field surveys only solve the problem on a small scale. This article presents the results of mapping suspended sediment concentrations in surface water of the Day River, northern Vietnam using GIS technique. The inverse distance weighting (IDW) interpolation method was applied to map suspended sediment concentration using data obtained from 11 sampling stations. The results which are obtained in this study can be used to evaluate surface water quality.
