Water quality



  • Data: products of water quality generated from very high resolution (10m) satellite images of Sentinel-2A/B (Vanhellemont, 2019).
    - Water turbity (FNU) and suspended particules (SPM) are estimated using semi-analytical algorithms (Nechad et al., 2010).
    - Chlorophyll-a concentration is calculated applying the OC3 algorithm ((O'Reilly and Werdell, 2019).
    - Cloud cover (RBG image) impacts the water quality data availability.
  • Diagnostics: regional maps every 5 days.

    → Consult this variable in the TIAMAT Observatory Cabrera (Balearic Islands) and TIAMAT Observatory Atlantic Islands (Galicia).


  • Daily water quality
