Determining the Scattering Properties of Vertically-Structured Nepheloid Layers from the Fusion of Active and Passive Optical Sensors.

摘要

The overall goal of this work, now completed, was to combine hyperspectral imagery (HSI) with LIDAR bathymetry to improve retrievals of bottom classification and water-column inherent optical properties including, if possible, the retrieval of the vertical structure of water-column and benthic-boundary scattering layers from airborne platforms.
