Cruise Inventory Information
Long name | RV Sea Vigil (74S9) cruise SV1B |
---|---|
Short name | SV1B |
Objectives and Narrative |
1. To develop sampling and ground-truthing protocols for use on subsequent surveys in support of CASI airborne remote sensing of estuarine and coastal waters within LOIS.
2. To obtain measurements of the optical characteristics of estuarine waters that would be relevant to the interpretation of remotely sensed (aircraft) images. 3. To measure and characterise water quality parameters which influence the absorption and reflection of light. |
