Our research focuses on developing satellite based algorithms that can
accurately retrieve biogeochemical constituents in optically complex
aquatic environments. Aquatic sensing using satellite observations will
increase our capacity to understand real time aquatic processes at a
wide variety of scales that will contribute to climate research.
Moreover, the technology will enhanced our capability to understand the
role of marine primary production and dissolved organic carbon in the
global carbon budget and the couplings between physical and biological
processes
