REMOTE SENSING OF TURBID WATERS IN THE SHORT WAVE INFRARED (SWIR: 1-3ΜM) – SEASWIR.

Project funded by the Belgian Federal Science Policy Office (BELSPO). 2012-2014. International Partner: Dra. Dogliotti (Argentina) – FINISHED

(finished)

 The main objective of this proposal is to determine the variability of the water reflectance in the SWIR using in situ measurements, theory, simulations and imagery. The implications will be examined for atmospheric corrections and a SWIR algorithm to retrieve TSM concentrations will be developed.
