Chromaticity-Based Discrimination of Algal Bloom from Inland and Coastal Waters Using In Situ Hyperspectral Remote Sensing Reflectance
The rapid growth of phytoplankton and microalgae has presented considerable environmental and societal challenges to the sustainable development of human society. Given the inherent limitations of satellite-based algal bloom detection techniques that rely on chlorophyll and fluorescence methods, this study proposes a method that employs hyperspectral data to calculate water chromatic indices (WCIs), including hue, saturation (S), dominant wavelength (λd), and integrated apparent visual wavelength (IAVW), to identify algal blooms. A global in situ hyperspectral dataset was constructed, comprising 13,110 entries, of which 9595 were for normal waters and 3515 for algal bloom waters. The findings of our investigation indicate statistically significant discrepancies in chromaticity parameters between normal and algal bloom waters, with a p-value of 0.05. It has been demonstrated that different algal blooms exhibit distinct chromatic characteristics. For algae of the same type, the chromaticity parameters increase exponentially with chlorophyll concentration for hue and λd, while S shows low correlation and IAVW displays a good linear relationship with chlorophyll concentration. The application of this method to the Bohai Sea (coastal) and Taihu Lake (inland water) for the extraction of algal blooms revealed a clear separation in chromaticity parameters between normal and algal bloom waters. Moreover, the method can be applied to satellite data, offering an alternative approach for the detection of algal blooms based on satellite data. The indices can serve as ground truth values for colorimetric indices and provide a benchmark for the validation of satellite chromatic products.
