The Difference

Seasonal vertically integrated primary productivity (IPP) in eight stations of Inner Ambon Bay (IAB) and ninestations of Outer Ambon Bay (OAB) was estimated using the depth-resolved, time-integrated production model andvertical-a distribution model which was mainly dependent on chlorophyll-a profile. The profile was modeled as Gaussfunction in which its parameters were determined by minimizing the difference between the model and the averageof in situ chlorophyll-a concentration from 2008 to 2012. The data was collected by UPT BKBL-LIPI Ambonduring monitoring program in Ambon Bay. Based on this model, the results showed that the primary productivityduring the southeast monsoon was to some degree higher than that of other seasons. The main factors causing the higherIPP in this season were upwelling phenomenon and high rainfall intensity. From the results, it could be concludedthat run-off gave more impacts in IAB than in OAB while upwelling in Banda Sea affected the IPP more in OABthan that in IAB. Then, the existence of the sill located between IAB and OAB inhibited the mixing of IAB andOAB waters so that the levels of IPP and chlorophyll-a concentration in IAB were higher than that of in the OAB.

Abstract. Laguna Lake, the Philippines’ largest freshwater lake, has always been historically, economically, and ecologically significant to the people living near it. However, as it lies at the center of urban development in Metro Manila, it suffers from water quality degradation. Water quality sampling by current field methods is not enough to assess the spatial and temporal variations of water quality in the lake. Regular water quality monitoring is advised, and remote sensing addresses the need for a synchronized and frequent observation and provides an efficient way to obtain bio-optical water quality parameters. Optimization of bio-optical models is done as local parameters change regionally and seasonally, thus requiring calibration. Field spectral measurements and in-situ water quality data taken during simultaneous satellite overpass were used to calibrate the bio-optical modelling tool WASI-2D to get estimates of chlorophyll-a concentration from the corresponding Landsat-8 images. The initial output values for chlorophyll-a concentration, which ranges from 10–40 μg/L, has an RMSE of up to 10 μg/L when compared with in situ data. Further refinements in the initial and constant parameters of the model resulted in an improved chlorophyll-a concentration retrieval from the Landsat-8 images. The outputs provided a chlorophyll-a concentration range from 5–12 μg/L, well within the usual range of measured values in the lake, with an RMSE of 2.28 μg/L compared to in situ data.

In recent years, the change of marine environment due to climate change and declining primary productivity have been big concerns in the East/Japan Sea, Korea. However, the main causes for the recent changes are still not revealed clearly. The particulate organic carbon (POC) to chlorophyll-a (chl-a) ratio (POC:chl-a) could be a useful indicator for ecological and physiological conditions of phytoplankton communities and thus help us to understand the recent reduction of primary productivity in the East/Japan Sea. To derive the POC in the East/Japan Sea from a satellite dataset, the new regional POC algorithm was empirically derived with in-situ measured POC concentrations. A strong positive linear relationship (R2 = 0.6579) was observed between the estimated and in-situ measured POC concentrations. Our new POC algorithm proved a better performance in the East/Japan Sea compared to the previous one for the global ocean. Based on the new algorithm, long-term POC:chl-a ratios were obtained in the entire East/Japan Sea from 2003 to 2018. The POC:chl-a showed a strong seasonal variability in the East/Japan Sea. The spring and fall blooms of phytoplankton mainly driven by the growth of large diatoms seem to be a major factor for the seasonal variability in the POC:chl-a. Our new regional POC algorithm modified for the East/Japan Sea could potentially contribute to long-term monitoring for the climate-associated ecosystem changes in the East/Japan Sea. Although the new regional POC algorithm shows a good correspondence with in-situ observed POC concentrations, the algorithm should be further improved with continuous field surveys.

The Impact

The responses of a zooplankton community to Chaoborus predation were studied in large in situ mesocosms in Peter Lake. Chaoborus flavicans, the native chaoborid, significantly reduced the density of the dominant grazer, Daphnia pulex, in relation to controls that lacked Chaoborus. Chaoborus americanus, a species found only in fishless bogs, reduced Da. pulex densities far more than the chaoborid found in Peter Lake, C. flavicans. Chaoborus americanus also significantly reduced the dominant copepod, Diaptomus oregonensis, in relation to both the control and the C. flavicans treatment. Chlorophyll a concentration did not differ among treatments, indicating that herbivore responses could not be explained by changes in food levels. Our results show that Chaoborus predation can greatly affect a zooplankton community, especially daphnids.

Sea primary productivity is an important factor in monitoring the quality of sea waters due to his role in the carbon cycle and the food chain for heterotrophic organisms. Estimation of sea primary productivity may be suspected through the values of chlorophyll-a concentration, but surface chlorophyll-a concentration was only able to explain 30% of the primary productivity of the sea. This research aims to build primary productivity estimation model based on chlorophyll-a concentration value of a surface layer of depth until depth compensation. Primary productivity model of relationships with chlorophyll concentration were extracted from Landsat-8 imagery then it could be used to calculated of sea primary productivity. The determination of the depth classification were done by measuring the attenuation coefficient values using the luxmeter underwater datalogger 2000 and secchi disk. The attenuation coefficient values by the luxmeter underwater, ranges between of 0.13-0.21 m-1 and secchi disk ranged, of 0.12 – 0.21 m-1. The penetration of light that through into the water column where  primary productivity is still in progress or where the depth of compensation ranged from 28.75 – 30.67 m. The simple linier regression model between average value of chlorophyll- concentration in all euphotic zone with sea primary productivity has high correlation, it greater than of surface chlorophyll-a concentration (R2 = 0.65). Model validation of sea primary productivity has high accuracy with the RMSD value of 0.09 and satellite-derived sea primary productivity were not significantly different. The satellite derived of chlorophyll-a could be calculated into sea primary productivity.Abstrak Produktivitas primer perairan merupakan faktor penting dalam pemantauan kualitas perairan laut karena berperan dalam siklus karbon dan rantai makanan bagi organisme heterotrof. Estimasi produktivitas primer perairan dapat diduga melalui nilai konsentrasi klorofil-a, namun konsentrasi klorofil-a permukaan laut hanya mampu menjelaskan 30% produktivitas primer laut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membangun model estimasi produktivitas primer berdasarkan nilai konsentrasi klorofil-a dari lapisan kedalaman permukaan sampai kedalaman kompensasi. Model hubungan produktivitas primer dengan konsentrasi klorofil-a yang diekstrak dari citra satelit Landsat-8 kemudian dapat digunakan untuk mengestimasi produktivitas primer satelit. Penentuan klasifikasi kedalaman dilakukan dengan mengukur nilai koefisien atenuasi menggunakan luxmeter underwater datalogger 2000  dan secchi disk. Nilai koefisien atenuasi dengan menggunakan luxmeter underwater berkisar antara 0,13 -0,21m-1 dan secchi disk berkisar antara 0,12 – 0,21 m-1. Penetrasi cahaya yang masuk ke kolom perairan dimana produksi primer masih berlangsung atau kedalaman kompensasi berkisar antara 28,75 – 30,67 m. Model regresi linier sederhana antara konsentrasi klorofil-a rata-rata seluruh zona eufotik dengan produktivitas primer perairan memiliki korelasi yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan konsentrasi klorofil-a permukaan dengan R2= 0,65. Validasi model produktivitas primer memiliki keakuratan yang tinggi dengan RMSD sebesar 0,09 dan produktivitas primer satelit secara signifikan tidak berbeda nyata dengan produktivitas primer data insitu. Sehingga  nilai konsentrasi klorofil-a satelit dapat ditransformasi menjadi produktivitas primer satelit.

Algae are a significant component of a biological monitoring program in an aquatic ecosystem. They are ideally suited for water quality assessments because of their nutrient requirements, rapid reproduction rate, and very short life cycle. Algae composition and temporal variation in abundances are important in determining the trophic level of lakes, and those can be estimated by the Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration of the species. In this work, a non-destructive method was employed to estimate the Chlorophyll-a concentration of multiple algae species using electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The proposed EIS method is rapid, cheaper, and suitable for in situ measurements compared with the other available non-destructive methods, such as spectrophotometry and hyperspectral or multispectral imaging. The electrical impedances in different frequencies ranging from 1 to 100 kHz were observed using an impedance converter system. Significant observations were identified within 3.5 kHz for multiple algae species and therefore reported in the results. A positive correlation was found between the Chlorophyll-a and the measured impedance of algae species at different frequencies. Later, EIS models were developed for the species in 1–3.5 kHz. A correlation of 90% was found by employing a least squares method and multiple linear regression. The corresponding coefficients of determination were obtained as 0.9, 0.885, and 0.915, respectively for 49 samples of Spirulina, 41 samples of Chlorella, and 26 samples of mixed algae species. The models were later validated using a new and separate set of samples of algae species.

Purpose. The purpose of the work is to evaluate accuracy of the satellite products for the coastal waters near Sevastopol, reconstructed by the standard algorithms based on the MODIS and VIIRS (installed at the artificial Earth satellites Aqua and Terra, and at Suomi NPP, respectively) data. Methods and Results. In situ sampling was carried out at the station (44°37'26" N and 33°26'05" E) located at a distance of two miles from the Sevastopol Bay. The chlorophyll a concentration was measured by the spectrophotometric method. The spectral light absorption coefficients by optically active components were measured in accordance with the current NASA protocol. The spectroradiometers MODIS and VIIRS Level 2 data with spatial resolution 1 km in nadir around the in situ station (44°37'26"±0°00'32" N and 33°26'05"±0°00'54" E) were used. The satellite products were processed by the SeaDAS 7.5.3 software developed in NASA. The research showed that the standard NASA algorithms being applied to the MODIS and VIIRS data, yielded incorrect values of the optically active components’ content in the Black Sea coastal waters near Sevastopol as compared to the data of in situ measurements in the same region: the satellite-derived “chlorophyll a concentration” was on average 1.6 times lower in spring, and 1.4 times higher in summer; the contribution of phytoplankton pigments to total light absorption at 443 nm was underestimated in 8.7 times; the light absorption by colored detrital organic matter was overestimated in 2.2 times. Conclusions. The NASA standard algorithms are inapplicable to calculating bio-optical indices in the coastal waters of the Black Sea near Sevastopol since they provide incorrect values of the satellite products (Ca-s, aph-s(443) and aCDM-s(443)). Operative ecological monitoring based on satellite data requires development of a regional algorithm taking into account the seawater optical features in the region and in the coastal zone, in particular.

Enhancement of phytoplankton biomass near island and atoll reef ecosystems—termed the Island Mass Effect (IME)—is an ecologically important phenomenon driving marine ecosystem trophic structure and fisheries in the midst of oligotrophic tropical oceans. This study investigated the occurrence of IME at Rangiroa Atoll in the French Polynesian Tuamotu archipelago, and the physical mechanisms driving IME, through the analysis of satellite and in situ data. Comparison of chlorophyll-a concentration near Rangiroa Atoll with chlorophyll-a concentration in open ocean water 50 km offshore, over a 16-year period, showed phytoplankton enhancement as high as 130% nearshore, over 75.7% of the study period. Our statistical model examining physical drivers showed the magnitude of IME to be significantly enhanced by higher sea surface temperature (SST) and lower photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). Further, in situ measurements of water flowing through Tiputa Channel revealed outflowing lagoon water to be warmer, lower in salinity, and higher in particulate load compared to ocean water. We suggest that water inside Rangiroa’s lagoon is enriched in nutrients and organic material by biological processes and advected as a result of tidal and wave forcing to coastal ocean waters, where it fuels primary production. We suggest that a combination of oceanographic and biological mechanisms is at play driving frequency and magnitude of IME at Rangiroa Atoll. Understanding the underlying processes driving IME at Rangiroa is essential for understanding future changes caused by a warming climate and changing environmental conditions for the marine ecosystem.

Recently, the Poti river mouth region has experienced environmental impacts that resulted in a change of landscape in its dry season, highlighting the eutrophication and proliferation of phytoplankton, algae, cyanobacteria and aquatic plants. Considering the aspects related to water-quality monitoring in the semiarid region of Brazil from remote sensing, this study aimed to evaluate the performance of Sentinel-2A satellite data in the retrieval of chlorophyll-a concentration in Poti River in Teresina, Piaui, Brazil. The chlorophyll-a concentration retrieval and mapping methodology involved the study of the water surface reflectance in Sentinel-2A images and their correlation with the chlorophyll-a data collected in situ during the years 2016 and 2017. The results generated by the Chl-1, Ha et al. (2017), Chl-2, Page et al. (2018), and Chl-3, Kuhn et al. (2019) equations show the need for calibrating the algorithms used for the Poti River water components. However, the empirical algorithm Chl-2 shows a correlation has been established to identify the spatiotemporal variation of chlorophyll-a concentration along the Poti River broadly and not punctually. The spatial distribution of this pigment in maps derived from Sentinel-2A is consistent with the pattern of occurrence determined by the in situ data. Therefore, the MSI sensor proved to be a tool suitable for the retrieval and monitoring of chlorophyll-a concentration along the Poti River.
