Lake Superior – Optics
Mouw et al., 2013 Effler et al. 2010
• High CDOM absorption (>75%) • Oligotrophic, small chlorophyll dynamic range in
the open lake (0.4 – 0.8 mg m-3)
Superior
aCDOM is 10x greater
Non-algal particles
wavelength (nm)
-
Retrieval of chlorophyll concentration from an inversion algorithm approach was unsuccessful. The very large contribution of absorption due to CDOM to total absorption and the error in derived CDOM absorption being greater than phytoplankton absorption values make the deconvolution of absorption due to phytoplankton and consequently chlorophyll concentration from Rrs(λ) difficult.

CDOM Absorption Imagery
Buffer zones based on the distance from shore: 25 km
Mouw et al., 2013
Spatial / temporal understanding of aCDOM lends insight into carbon inputs and cycling within the lake as well as optical limitations for satellite retrievals of other biogeochemical parameters.
