Description

Node of the Andalusian Environmental Information Network. Regional Government of Andalusia. Satellite image AQUA MODIS annual anomaly of k490 (Water Transparency) of the Year 2015 with respect to the average of the period 2000-2015. Spatial resolution 1100 m. Scope Atlantic Ocean and Alboran Sea. In ETRS89 UTM spindle 30. In order to obtain the anomalies in the behavior of k490 (Transparency of water) (m-1) in the marine environment corresponding to the last year of study, with respect to its average behavior throughout the historical series 2000-2015. With this image, you can observe the increase or decrease of this parameter, which indicates how the light inside the water column is attenuated, helping to characterize the transparency of the water and therefore estimate the state of turbidity of the waters of the marine environment. In addition, this parameter has many applications in ocean optics, such as its relationship with the concentration of phytoplankton and dissolved organic and inorganic sediments in seawater. Ministry of the Environment and Spatial Planning. Regional Government of Andalusia. Node of the Andalusian Environmental Information Network. Regional Government of Andalusia. Integrated in the Spatial Data Infrastructure of Andalusia, following the guidelines of the Cartographic System of Andalusia.
