Abstract
River water quality has been increasingly deteriorated because of the influence of natural process and anthropogenic activities. Quantifying the influence of landscape metrics, namely topography and land use pattern, which encompass land use composition and landscape configuration, across different spatial and seasonal scales that reflect natural process and anthropogenic activities, is highly beneficial for water quality protection. In this study, we focused on investigating the effects of topography, landscape configuration and land use composition on water quality at different spatial scales, including 1-km buffer and sub-watershed, and seasonal scales, including wet and dry season, based on the monthly water quality data in 2016 of Dongting Lake in China. Multivariate statistical analysis of redundancy analysis and partial redundancy analysis was used to quantify the contributions of these factors under different scales. Our results showed that among the three environmental groups, topography made the greatest pure contribution to water quality, accounting for 11.4 to 30.9% of the variation. This was followed by landscape configuration, which accounted for 9.4 to 23.0%, and land use composition, which accounted for 5.9 to 15.7%. More specifically, water body made the greatest contribution to the water quality variation during dry season at both spatial scales, contributing 16.6 to 17.2% of the variation. In contrast, edge density was the primary interpreter of the variability in water quality during wet season at both spatial scales, accounting for 9.9 to 11.1% of the variation. The spatial variability in the influence of landscape metrics on water quality was not markedly distinct. However, these metrics have a minimal impact difference on water quality at the buffer scale and the sub-watershed scale. Moreover, the contribution of landscape configuration varied the most from the buffer to sub-watershed scales, indicating its importance for the spatial scale difference in water quality. The findings of this study offer useful insights into enhancing water quality through improved handling of landscape metrics.

Abstract
Particulate composition provides important information for understanding the changes in underwater light fields and primary productivity. In this study, a semianalytical algorithm, based on Rayleigh-corrected reflectance at 678 nm and 748 nm on Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) images was used to estimate the ratio of chlorophyll a to total suspended solids (Chla/TSS), which characterizes the particulate composition of the Great Lakes. The long-term spatial and temporal characteristics of Chla/TSS in the Great Lakes from 2000 to 2020 were obtained. The results demonstrated that Lake Superior had the highest average Chla/TSS values (5.79±0.76 µg/mg), while Lake Erie had the lowest average Chla/TSS values (2.93±0.76 µg/mg). The Mann-Kendall test showed that the Chla/TSS of the Great Lakes all showed an increasing trend, notably in Lake Michigan, with 88.23% pixels showing significant increasing trend. Climatic and hydrological factors dominated the intra-annual variation of Chla/TSS, with contribution rates ranging from 71.47% to 92.54%. Through the annual Chla/TSS change pattern analysis, it was found that the contribution of wind speed to the annual variation in Chla/TSS was slight. Changes in temperature played a major role in the interannual variability of Chla/TSS in Lake Superior and Ontario; runoff and settlement were the major contributors in Lake Huron and Michigan, while cropland dominated the Chla/TSS interannual variability in Lake Erie. Furthermore, the significantly low values of Chla/TSS in spring had the potential to predict the occurrence of blooms in western Lake Erie, and the spatial distribution of Chla/TSS could help predict the location of blooms in the next few days.

Xiong J, Lin C, Cao Z, Hu M, Xue K, Chen X, Ma R. Development of remote sensing algorithm for total phosphorus concentration in eutrophic lakes: Conventional or machine learning? WATER RESEARCH 2022; 215:118213. [PMID: 35247602 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2022.118213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2021] [Revised: 01/30/2022] [Accepted: 02/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Phosphorus is a limiting nutrient in freshwater ecosystems. Therefore, the estimation of total phosphorus (TP) concentration in eutrophic water using remote sensing technology is of great significance for lake environmental management. However, there is no TP remote sensing model for lake groups, and thus far, specific models have been used for specific lakes. To address this issue, this study proposes a framework for TP estimation. First, three algorithm development frameworks were compared and applied to the development of an algorithm for Lake Taihu, which has complex water environment characteristics and is a representative of eutrophic lakes. An Extremely Gradient Boosting (BST) machine learning framework was proposed for developing the Taihu TP algorithm. The machine learning algorithm could mine the relationship between FAI and TP in Lake Taihu, where the optical properties of the water body are dominated by phytoplankton. The algorithm exhibited robust performance with an R2 value of 0.6 (RMSE = 0.07 mg/L, MRE = 43.33%). Then, a general TP algorithm (R2 = 0.64, RMSE = 0.06 mg/L, MRE = 34.13%) was developed using the proposed framework and tested in seven other lakes using synchronous image data. The algorithm accuracy was found to be affected by aquatic vegetation and enclosure aquaculture. Third, compared with field investigations in other studies on Lake Taihu, the Taihu TP algorithm showed good performance for long-term TP estimation. Therefore, the machine learning framework developed in this study has application potential in large-scale spatio-temporal TP estimation in eutrophic lakes.

Abstract
The Alqueva reservoir is essential for water supply in the Alentejo region (south of Portugal). Satellite data are essential to overcome the temporal and spatial limitations of in situ measurements, ensuring continuous and global water quality monitoring. Data between 2017 and 2020, obtained from OLCI (Ocean and Land Color Instrument) aboard Sentinel-3, were explored. Two different methods were used to assess the water quality in the reservoir: K-means to group reflectance spectra into different optical water types (OWT), and empirical algorithms to estimate water quality parameters. Spatial (in five different areas in the reservoir) and temporal (monthly) variations of OWT and water quality parameters were analyzed, namely, Secchi depth, water turbidity, chlorophyll a, and phycocyanin concentrations. One cluster has been identified representing the typical spectra of the presence of microalgae in the reservoir, mainly between July and October and more intense in the northern region of the Alqueva reservoir. An OWT type representing the area of the reservoir with the highest transparency and lowest chlorophyll a concentration was defined. The methodology proposed is suitable to continuously monitor the water quality of Alqueva reservoir, constituting a useful contribution to a potential early warning system for identification of critical areas corresponding to cyanobacterial algae blooms.

Evaluating Atmospheric Correction Algorithms Applied to OLCI Sentinel-3 Data of Chesapeake Bay Waters. REMOTE SENSING 2022.

Abstract
Satellite remote sensing permits large-scale monitoring of coastal waters through synoptic measurements of water-leaving radiance that can be scaled to relevant water quality metrics and in turn help inform local and regional responses to a variety of stressors. As both the incident and water-leaving radiance are affected by interactions with the intervening atmosphere, the efficacy of atmospheric correction algorithms is essential to derive accurate water-leaving radiometry. Modern ocean color satellite sensors such as the Ocean and Land Colour Instrument (OLCI) onboard the Copernicus Sentinel-3A and -3B satellites are providing unprecedented operational data at the higher spatial, spectral, and temporal resolution that is necessary to resolve optically complex coastal water quality. Validating these satellite-based radiance measurements with vicarious in situ radiometry, especially in optically complex coastal waters, is a critical step in not only evaluating atmospheric correction algorithm performance but ultimately providing accurate water quality metrics for stakeholders. In this study, a regional in situ dataset from the Chesapeake Bay was used to evaluate the performance of four atmospheric correction algorithms applied to OLCI Level-1 data. Images of the Chesapeake Bay are processed through a neural-net based algorithm (C2RCC), a spectral optimization-based algorithm (POLYMER), an iterative two-band bio-optical-based algorithm (L2gen), and compared to the standard Level-2 OLCI data (BAC). Performance was evaluated through a matchup analysis to in situ remote sensing reflectance data. Statistical metrics demonstrated that C2RCC had the best performance, particularly in the longer wavelengths (>560 nm) and POLYMER contained the most clear day coverage (fewest flagged data). This study provides a framework with associated uncertainties and recommendations to utilize OLCI ocean color data to monitor the water quality and biogeochemical dynamics in Chesapeake Bay.

Abstract
Secchi disk depth (SDD) has long been considered as a reliable proxy for lake clarity, and an important indicator of the aquatic ecosystems. Meteorological and anthropogenic factors can affect SDD, but the mechanism of these effects and the potential control of climate change are poorly understood. Preliminary research at Lake Khanka (international shallow lake on the China-Russia border) had led to the hypothesis that climatic factors, through their impact on suspended particulate matter (SPM) concentration, are key drivers of SDD variability. To verify the hypothesis, Landsat and MODIS images were used to examine temporal trend in these parameters. For that analysis, the novel SPM index (SPMI) was developed, through incorporation of SPM concentration effect on spectral radiance, and was satisfactorily applied to both Landsat (R2 = 0.70, p < 0.001) and MODIS (R2 = 0.78, p < 0.001) images to obtain remote estimates of SPM concentration. Further, the SPMI algorithm was successfully applied to the shallow lakes Hulun, Chao and Hongze, demonstrating its portability. Through analysis of the temporal trend (1984-2019) in SDD and SPM, this study demonstrated that variation in SPM concentration was the dominant driver (explaining 63% of the variation as opposed to 2% due to solar radiation) of SDD in Lake Khanka, thus supporting the study hypothesis. Furthermore, we speculated that variation in wind speed, probably impacted by difference in temperature between lake surface and surrounding landscapes (greater difference between 1984-2009 than after 2010), may have caused varying degree of sediment resuspension, ultimately controlling SPM and SDD variation in Lake Khanka.

Comparison of In-Situ Chlorophyll-a Time Series and Sentinel-3 Ocean and Land Color Instrument Data in Slovenian National Waters (Gulf of Trieste, Adriatic Sea). WATER 2021.

Abstract
While satellite remote sensing of ocean color is a viable tool for estimating large-scale patterns of chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) and global ocean primary production, its application in coastal waters is limited by the complex optical properties. An exploratory study was conducted in the Gulf of Trieste (Adriatic Sea) to assess the usefulness of Sentinel-3 satellite data in the Slovenian national waters. OLCI (Ocean and Land Colour Instrument) Chl-a level 2 products (OC4Me and NN) were compared to monthly Chl-a in-situ measurements at fixed sites from 2017 to 2019. In addition, eight other methods for estimating Chl-a concentration based on reflectance in different spectral bands were tested (OC3M, OC4E, MedOC4, ADOC4, AD4, 3B-OLCI, 2B-OLCI and G2B). For some of these methods, calibration was performed on in-situ data to achieve a better agreement. Finally, L1-regularized regression and random forest were trained on the available dataset to test the capabilities of the machine learning approach. The results show rather poor performance of the two originally available products. The same is true for the other eight methods and the fits to the measured values also show only marginal improvement. The best results are obtained with the blue-green methods (OC3, OC4 and AD4), especially the AD4SI (a designated fit of AD4) with R = 0.56 and RMSE = 0.4 mg/m³, while the near infrared (NIR) methods show underwhelming performance. The machine learning approach can only explain 30% of the variability and the RMSE is of the same order as for the blue-green methods. We conclude that due to the low Chl-a concentration and the moderate turbidity of the seawater, the reflectance provided by the Sentinel-3 OLCI spectrometer carries little information about Chl-a in the Slovenian national waters within the Gulf of Trieste and is therefore of limited use for our purposes. This requires that we continue to improve satellite products for use in those marine waters that have not yet proven suitable. In this way, satellite data could be effectively integrated into a comprehensive network that would allow a reliable assessment of ecological status, taking into account environmental regulations.

Remote Estimation of Trophic State Index for Inland Waters Using Landsat-8 OLI Imagery. REMOTE SENSING 2021.

Abstract
Remote monitoring of trophic state for inland waters is a hotspot of water quality studies worldwide. However, the complex optical properties of inland waters limit the potential of algorithms. This research aims to develop an algorithm to estimate the trophic state in inland waters. First, the turbid water index was applied for the determination of optical water types on each pixel, and water bodies are divided into two categories: algae-dominated water (Type I) and turbid water (Type II). The algal biomass index (ABI) was then established based on water classification to derive the trophic state index (TSI) proposed by Carlson (1977). The results showed a considerable precision in Type I water (R2 = 0.62, N = 282) and Type II water (R2 = 0.57, N = 132). The ABI-derived TSI outperformed several band-ratio algorithms and a machine learning method (RMSE = 4.08, MRE = 5.46%, MAE = 3.14, NSE = 0.64). Such a model was employed to generate the trophic state index of 146 lakes (> 10 km2) in eastern China from 2013 to 2020 using Landsat-8 surface reflectance data. The number of hypertrophic and oligotrophic lakes decreased from 45.89% to 21.92% and 4.11% to 1.37%, respectively, while the number of mesotrophic and eutrophic lakes increased from 12.33% to 23.97% and 37.67% to 52.74%. The annual mean TSI for the lakes in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River basin was higher than that in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and Huai River basin. The retrieval algorithm illustrated the applicability to other sensors with an overall accuracy of 83.27% for moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) and 82.92% for Sentinel-3 OLCI sensor, demonstrating the potential for high-frequency observation and large-scale simulation capability. Our study can provide an effective trophic state assessment and support inland water management.

Abstract
The development of urban agglomeration in aquatic areas is premised on ecological security. The construction of ecological security network is an effective measure to reduce ecological resistance and guarantee economic development. In this study, a comprehensive ecological security network (ESN) evaluation approach is developed by integrating the Minimum Cumulative Resistance (MCR) model and Duranton and Overman Index (DOI). Taking the urban agglomeration around Poyang Lake in 2015 as a case, the MCR model showed the ecological landscape pattern of discrete connection and large overall ecological resistance. The DOI model indicated that the industries of moderately polluted were global localization, while heavily polluted were small-scale localization and large-scale dispersion. Accordingly, the ESN consisting of 35 ecological sources, 34 ecological corridors, 57 artificial corridors, and 39 eco-economic strategic nodes can avoid the threat of industrial layout to the ecological landscape. The results of this study complemented the guidance of industrial agglomeration theory on the basis of "source-sink" theory. The dual evaluation approach of landscape ecology and economic agglomeration proposed in this study explores interdisciplinary data fusion of different scales, and also provides a reference for inter-municipal coordinated ecological management and restraining urban excessive expansion.

Comparison of In Situ and Remote-Sensing Methods to Determine Turbidity and Concentration of Suspended Matter in the Estuary Zone of the Mzymta River, Black Sea. REMOTE SENSING 2021.

Abstract
The paper presents the results of a comparison of water turbidity and suspended particulate matter concentration (SPM) obtained from quasi-synchronous in situ and satellite remote-sensing data. Field measurements from a small boat were performed in April and May 2019, in the northeastern part of the Black Sea, in the mouth area of the Mzymta River. The measuring instruments and methods included a turbidity sensor mounted on a CTD (Conductivity, Temperature, Depth), probe, a portable turbidimeter, water sampling for further laboratory analysis and collecting meteorological information from boat and ground-based weather stations. Remote-sensing methods included turbidity and SPM estimation using the C2RCC (Case 2 Regional Coast Color) and Atmospheric correction for OLI ‘lite’ (ACOLITE) ACOLITE processors that were run on Landsat-8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) and Sentinel-2A/2B Multispectral Instrument (MSI) satellite data. The highest correlation between the satellite SPM and the water sampling SPM for the study area in conditions of spring flooding was achieved using C2RCC, but only for measurements undertaken almost synchronously with satellite imaging because of the high mobility of the Mzymta plume. Within the few hours when all the stations were completed, its boundary could shift considerably. The ACOLITE algorithms overestimated by 1.5 times the water sampling SPM in the low value range up to 15 g/m3. For SPM over 20–25 g/m3, a high correlation was observed both with the in situ measurements and the C2RCC results. It was demonstrated that quantitative turbidity and SPM values retrieved from Landsat-8 OLI and Sentinel-2A/2B MSI data can adequately reflect the real situation even using standard retrieval algorithms, not regional ones, provided the best suited algorithm is selected for the study region.

Water Body Extraction from Sentinel-3 Image with Multiscale Spatiotemporal Super-Resolution Mapping. WATER 2020.

Abstract
Water body mapping is significant for water resource management. In the view of 21 spectral bands and a short revisit time of no more than two days, a Sentinel-3 OLCI (Ocean and Land Colour Instrument) image could be the optimum data source in the near-real-time mapping of water bodies. However, the image is often limited by its low spatial resolution in practice. Super-resolution mapping (SRM) is a good solution to generate finer spatial resolution maps than the input data allows. In this paper, a multiscale spatiotemporal super-resolution mapping (MSST_SRM) method for water bodies is proposed, particularly for Sentinel-3 OLCI images. The proposed MSST_SRM method employs the integrated Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) images calculated from four near-infrared (NIR) bands and Green Band 6 of the Sentinel-3 OLCI image as input data and combined the spectral, multispatial, and temporal terms into one objective function to generate a fine water body map. Two experiments in the Tibet Plate and Daye lakes were employed to test the effectiveness of the MSST_SRM method. Results revealed that by using multiscale spatial dependence under the framework of spatiotemporal super-resolution Mapping, MSST_SRM could generate finer water body maps than the hard classification method and the other three SRM-based methods. Therefore, the proposed MSST_SRM method shows marked efficiency and potential in water body mapping using Sentinel-3 OLCI images.
