Abstract
Satellite images are essential tools for monitoring aquatic ecosystems and assessing water quality, as they enable the measurement of parameters such as chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration, phycocyanin (PC), and cyanobacteria density. These indicators aid in evaluating eutrophication processes and detecting cyanobacteria in aquatic ecosystems. This study utilized field data and images captured by the Sentinel-2 sensor from 2015 to 2022 to investigate the Jaguari-Jacareí reservoirs (JAG-JAC). Two atmospheric corrections from the Case 2 Regional Coast Color (C2RCC) processor, namely C2X and C2XC, were applied, and algorithms were developed to estimate the parameters using both in situ data measurements and reflectance data extracted from the images. For Chl-a concentration, the dataset was divided into two blocks: one for model calibration (70% of the data) and the other for validation (30% of the data). As for PC, the entire dataset was utilized to calibrate the model, and validation was conducted through cross-validation using the Automated Radiative Transfer Model Operator (ARTMO) software. Cyanobacteria density was indirectly estimated from the Chl-a concentrations determined in the field samples, as these variables exhibited a strong correlation, also validating the model previously proposed for the Cantareira system for estimating cyanobacteria density from Chl-a data. Additionally, the automatic chlorophyll-a products (con_chla) derived from the C2X and C2XC processors were validated. The findings revealed that the C2X processor exhibited the greatest potential for estimating water quality parameters. It was observed that the most effective algorithms were derived using the R705/R665 band ratio for Chl-a and the R705/R490 ratio for PC. For cyanobacteria density, the optimal algorithm was established based on the relationship between cyanobacteria density and Chl-a using the data obtained in this study.
期刊介绍：
The journal ''Remote Sensing Applications: Society and Environment'' (RSASE) focuses on remote sensing studies that address specific topics with an emphasis on environmental and societal issues - regional / local studies with global significance. Subjects are encouraged to have an interdisciplinary approach and include, but are not limited by: " -Global and climate change studies addressing the impact of increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases, CO2 emission, carbon balance and carbon mitigation, energy system on social and environmental systems -Ecological and environmental issues including biodiversity, ecosystem dynamics, land degradation, atmospheric and water pollution, urban footprint, ecosystem management and natural hazards (e.g. earthquakes, typhoons, floods, landslides) -Natural resource studies including land-use in general, biomass estimation, forests, agricultural land, plantation, soils, coral reefs, wetland and water resources -Agriculture, food production systems and food security outcomes -Socio-economic issues including urban systems, urban growth, public health, epidemics, land-use transition and land use conflicts -Oceanography and coastal zone studies, including sea level rise projections, coastlines changes and the ocean-land interface -Regional challenges for remote sensing application techniques, monitoring and analysis, such as cloud screening and atmospheric correction for tropical regions -Interdisciplinary studies combining remote sensing, household survey data, field measurements and models to address environmental, societal and sustainability issues -Quantitative and qualitative analysis that documents the impact of using remote sensing studies in social, political, environmental or economic systems
