GONG Cai-lan, YIN Qiu, KUANG Ding-bo. Correlations Between Water Quality Indexes and Reflectance Spectra of Huangpujiang River[J]. Journal of Remote Sensing, 2006, (6): 910-916. DOI: 10.11834/jrs.200606133.
Correlations Between Water Quality Indexes and Reflectance Spectra of Huangpujiang River
This study was conducted to establish correlations between reflectance spectra and water quality indexes of the Huangpujiang River of Shanghai
sampled in August and November of 2002.31 typical stations were selected to measure the spectral reflectance and 9 water quality parameters were analyzed for every measured stations
including Total Phosphorous(TP)
Total Nitrogen(TN)
Chemical Demand Oxygen with potassium permanganate(COD
Mn
) and with chromate (COD
Cr
)
Dissolved Oxygen(DO)
Biological Demand Oxygen(BOD
5
)
Suspended Sediments and Turbidity.With significant correlation between the nine water quality indexes
TN and suspended sediment concentration were selected
then the paper mainly analyzed the correlations between the two water quality indexes and the normalized reflectance
its logarithm
derivative spectrum
and the ratio of spectral reflectance at different bands.The characterized bands were analyzed for the two water quality parameters with single band normalized spectral reflectance and the first derivative reflectance
and the linear models were built between the water quality parameters and the spectral reflectance ratios of different band
all these models had the good correlation coefficient of more than 0.75 between the two parameters and the spectra reflectance.
