Intercomparison of Suspended Sediment Concentration Derived from Models, Measurements and Hyperspectral Imagery in a System of Shallow, Relatively Pristine Coastal Bays: A Preliminary Study

Abstract

The long-term goal is to improve our capabilities for remotely sensing and modeling water column properties in shallow coastal bays, especially suspended sediment concentration and other contributions to water clarity/turbidity, and their spatial and temporal variability.
