Title: Interpretation of satellite remote sensing data in the Baltic sea with special respect to Harmful Algae Bloom events

Cyanobacterial blooms in the Baltic Sea and other Harmful Algal Blooms represent extreme events in aquatic ecosystems for which specially adapted ocean colour interpretation algorithms are needed. Here, an algorithm, developed for the Baltic Sea waters, derives information from MERIS satellite data on chlorophyll-like pigments, suspended particulates and dissolved organic matters. The presentation comprises demonstrations and intercomparisons of a local Baltic Sea algorithm and a global MERIS interpretation algorithm for the summer bloom events 2003.Read More
