A Novel Method Based on Backscattering for Discriminating Summer Blooms of the Raphidophyte (<i>Chattonella</i> spp.) and the Diatom (<i>Skeletonema</i> spp.) using MODIS Images in Ariake Sea, Japan

A Novel Method Based on Backscattering for Discriminating Summer Blooms of the Raphidophyte (<i>Chattonella</i> spp.) and the Diatom (<i>Skeletonema</i> spp.) using MODIS Images in Ariake Sea, Japan

The raphidophyte <i>Chattonella</i> spp. and diatom <i>Skeletonema</i> spp. are the dominant harmful algal species of summer blooms in Ariake Sea, Japan. A new bio-optical algorithm based on backscattering features has been developed to differentiate harmful raphidophyte bloo...
