A Statistical Algorithm for Estimating Chlorophyll Concentration in the New Caledonian Lagoon

A Statistical Algorithm for Estimating Chlorophyll Concentration in the New Caledonian Lagoon

Spatial and temporal dynamics of phytoplankton biomass and water turbidity can provide crucial information about the function, health and vulnerability of lagoon ecosystems (coral reefs, sea grasses, etc.). A statistical algorithm is proposed to estimate chlorophyll-a concentration ([chl-a]) in opti...
