Surveillance of Lake Pontchartrain Algal BloomsOceansat-1 OCM ocean color measurements and Terra-1/Aqua-1 MODIS true color measurements are providing daily updates on water quality and algal blooms in Lake Pontchartrain and surrounding coastal areas in the aftermath of KATRINA. We will be evaluating the bloom features through the collection and analysis of water samples in key locations. HPLC measurements, spectro-radiometer data, and phytopla

Oceansat Imagery from the Earth Scan LaboratoryThe Louisiana coast receives large volumes of river water from the Mississippi and Atchafalaya Rivers. The rivers usually flood in spring and sometimes into summer, producing a stratified water column. The river-borne nutrients fuel large phytoplankton blooms on the shelf. These physical and biological processes can result in hypoxia on the shelf, and the "dead zone". The Ocean Color Monitor (OCM)
