GUARANTEED PASS!!
What is the limitations for use in inland and estuarine waters
Spatial resolution
What are the differences between Modis and Landsat?
Modis- Wide swath, widefield of view, 90% earth daily coverage
Landsat- Narrow Swath, narrow field of view, covers the entire earth surface over
16 days.
OLI (landsat)
Improved SNR compared to previous missions, high quality SWIR bands, limited
temporal coverage, the high-quality SWIR band in landsat-8 help with atmospheric
correction for turbid waters.
Sentinel- 2A and 2B
Europen sensors and has coverage every 10-15 days
, 2|Page
Challenges w/sensors
Inadequate aersol models for inland waters, sunglint, cloud shadows.
Why are seagrass important?
a major contributor to oceanic blue carbon, located in intertidal, provide a wide
range of ecosystem services.
what is the dominant species of seagrass in the north atlantic?
eelgrass, and present in estuaries and lagoons.
Plum Island Estuary (PIE)
bar-built, tidal marsh-influenced estuary in the northern mass. Lost much of the
eelgrass in the 1900s.
What is the common type of seagrass restoration?
Transplant
What is the most important factor for transplant success?
site selection, and the sites are selected by habitat suitability maps, and using
remote sensing.
