Satellite imagery can used for Satellite imagery can used for observing marine features such as:observing marine features such as:
large-scale circulation, currents, large-scale circulation, currents, river outflow and water quality.river outflow and water quality.
This can be visualized by highlighting This can be visualized by highlighting variations in water variations in water colorcolor and/or and/or temperaturetemperature..
These observations can be used for These observations can be used for activities such asactivities such as
environmental monitoring of sensitive environmental monitoring of sensitive coastal zones, coastal zones,
hazards assessment, and hazards assessment, and management of fishing fleets. management of fishing fleets.
