The water transparency is an important parameter to water quality monitoring. To quantify the water transparency the attenuation coefficient, k(d), of the photosynthetically active radiation - PAR, k(d)(PAR), the euphotic ...

The application of remote sensing technology to water quality monitoring has special significance for lake management at regional scale. Water clarity expressed in terms of Secchi disk transparency (SDT) is a highly useful ...

The Central Plains of Argentina is a heterogeneous environment, but the lakes there share some fundamental features: they are all shallow and polymictic as being well exposed to wind. First, we provide a synthesis of the ...

Water quality monitoring could benefit from information derived from the newest generation of medium-resolution Earth observation satellites. The main objective of our study was to assess the suitability of both Landsat 8 ...

Las actividades antrópicas han provocado un aumento de nutrientes orgánicos e inorgánicos en los lagos, generando una sobreproducción de fitoplancton en estos sistemas. Esto representa uno de los mayores problemas ...
