Lake of the Woods Satellite-derived Annual Algal Bloom Indices

This dataset contains annual algal bloom indices (duration, extent, intensity, severity) summary statistics (maximum, mean) over the June through October monitoring period for Lake of the Woods. These data are derived from satellite remote sensing algorithms using European Space Agency's (ESA's) MEdium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) sensor on the Envisat satellite (2002-2012) and ESA's Ocean and Land Colour Instrument (OLCI) sensor on the Sentinel 3A and Sentinel 3B satellites (2016-present). At the end of each monitoring season, data are presented in annual report format including current and historical summary statistics of algal bloom indices, alongside relevant imagery.

本数据集收录伍兹湖（Lake of the Woods）2002年至2012年、以及2016年至今的6月至10月监测时段内的年度藻华指数（algal bloom indices）汇总统计量，其中藻华指数涵盖持续时长、覆盖范围、强度与严重程度四类，统计指标包含最大值与均值。该类数据源自卫星遥感算法，所用传感器包括欧洲空间局（European Space Agency, ESA）搭载于Envisat卫星的中等分辨率成像光谱仪（MEdium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer, MERIS，2002-2012），以及ESA搭载于Sentinel 3A与Sentinel 3B卫星的海洋与陆地颜色仪（Ocean and Land Colour Instrument, OLCI，2016年至今）。各监测季结束后，数据将以年度报告形式发布，内容包含藻华指数的当期及历史汇总统计量，并附相关遥感影像。引用格式：Binding, C.E., Pizzolato, L., & Zeng, C.
