  • Above and Below : Oregon Coastal Phytoplankton Bloom Dynamics from Sea and Space

    Creator:
    McKibben, S. Morgaine
    Abstract:
    Phytoplankton are a sentinel class of organisms in the marine environment. Through their photosynthetic activity in sunlit waters worldwide, phytoplankton shape the health and productivity of marine ecosystems and impact the global climate. In this work a range of ocean sensing technologies (via ships, surf zone sampling, moorings, gliders, and...

  • Development of satellite bloom detection products for coastal Oregon

    Creator:
    McKibben, S. Morgaine
    Abstract:
    Two bloom-detection products were developed for the Oregon coast that describe the relative percent change observed between successive pairs of 8-day chlorophyll-a (CHL) and fluorescence line-height (FLH) products obtained from the MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer aboard the Aqua spacecraft (MODIS-Aqua). The CHL[subscript dev] and FLH[subscript dev] products, respectively, were optimized...
