Summary: A method for detecting coccolithophore blooms in the Arctic Sea using an ocean color index (CI) approach has been developed. The algorithm reduces the negative effects of heavy clouds and persistent fog, increasing the coverage of satellite observation. Compared to traditional methods, this algorithm yields more coverage and frequency of coccolithophore blooms.

Summary: An underwater volcanic eruption near the Vava'u island group in Tonga on August 7, 2019 created floating pumice that covered an area of 150 km(2) on the ocean's surface. Satellite imagery was used to track the westward drift of the pumice raft for 43 days, indicating the far-reaching effects of the eruption and the importance of monitoring and mitigating potential economic impacts.

Summary: The East Sea is a semi-enclosed marginal sea with oceanic features and has been significantly affected by global ocean warming. Accurate measurements of phytoplankton biomass in the sea are necessary to study biological responses to climate change. New algorithms have been developed to improve the assessment of biological and biogeochemical processes.

Summary: In this study, a new AC algorithm called OC-XGBRT was developed to retrieve Rrs(λ) in the presence of AA in the blue and ultraviolet bands. The algorithm, based on radiative simulation and machine learning, aims to improve the quality of ocean color satellite products over inland and coastal waters with AA. Validation and application results showed that OC-XGBRT outperformed other AC algorithms in terms of accuracy and spatial coverage of Rrs(412 nm) and Rrs(443 nm).

Summary: In this study, a hybrid retrieval model based on satellite remote sensing data was used to monitor the surface POC concentration in the East China Sea. The results showed that the hybrid algorithm performed well and could be applied to other seas with similar optical properties. Understanding the spatio-temporal variability of POC in the East China Sea is important for studying carbon cycling in marginal seas.

Summary: By using six years of satellite data, this study reveals the occurrence and distribution of red tides around Jeju Island. Red tides are mainly found in the western and northern coastal regions of Jeju Island, with a peak season in April-May. The study also finds a correlation between the occurrence of red tides and El Niño Southern Oscillation indices.

Summary: Satellite ocean color remote sensing can be used to detect particulate organic nitrogen (PON) concentrations in the global ocean, with AOP-based models showing the best performance. PON models were developed to explore the monthly variations of PON concentrations in the global ocean, and further studies will investigate the spatiotemporal variations and driving forces of oceanic PON.
