A Chromophoric Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM) Observatory

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project is to develop an understanding of coastal systems such that optical properties of complex coastal waters can be retrieved and predicted from remote sensing and modeling efforts. This project focuses on establishing a moderate-scale observatory (Neponset) to develop watershed and coastal ocean models and remote sensing algorithms and extending this knowledge to a larger system (Hudson).
