Abstract

Remote estimation of water quality via radiometric instruments provides a convenient means for monitoring environmental changes in water bodies in wide areas. Combined with platforms such as satellite, manned/unmanned vehicles, it reduces the measurement cost and time for acquiring water quality information on the interested target areas. To develop accurate retrieval algorithms, however, acquisition of in-situ measurements from various optical environment is critical. In this study, hyperspectral radiometric measurements, the coincident water quality variables, and its optical properties were obtained to analyze the optical environment of the study area. Field data collected around the Tongyeong area showed that the area has optically complex environment, with occasional outbreak of red tide in summer seasons. Effect of water constituents on the optical variables (remote sensing reflectance and absorption coefficients) were qualitatively analyzed.

복사계 장비를 이용하여 수질을 원격으로 추정하는 기술은 광역 수권환경의 변화를 모니터링함에 있어서 효과적인 수단을 제공한다. 위성 또는 유무인 항공기 등의 플랫폼과 결합되어 사용될 시, 광역 수질정보 획득에 소요되는 비용 및 시간을 절감할 수 있다. 정확한 원격 추정 알고리즘을 개발하기 위해서는 다양한 광학적 환경에서 획득된 현장 관측 자료의 확보가 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 조사지역의 광학적 환경을 분석하기 위하여, 초분광 복사량 및 수중 구성물질에, 그리고 그 구성물질의 광학적 특성에 대한 자료가 획득되었다. 조사해역으로 설정된 통영 인근 해역에 대한 관측자료를 분석한 결과, 조사해역은 광학적으로 복잡한 해역임이 나타났고, 일부 정점에서 적조생물을 포함한 수괴가 발견되었다. 또한, 각 수중 구성성분이 원격탐사 반사도 및 흡광계수에 미치는 영향에 대한 정성적인 분석결과를 제공한다.
