    Dhrijesh Chauhan
    Remote sensing can be used to monitor oceans and coastal areas in several ways: 1. It can identify ocean patterns like currents, eddies, and upwelling zones. This helps with issues like fish stock assessment, ship routing, and climate modeling. 2. It allows for storm forecasting by monitoring wind speeds, wave heights, and surface temperatures. 3. Oil spills can be mapped and their extent and movement predicted over time to facilitate cleanup efforts. 4. Shipping routes can be planned using data on winds, currents, and bathymetry from remote sensing to ensure efficient and safe transport.

    Introduction

    The oceans not only provide valuable food and biophysical resources, they also
    serve as transportation routes, are crucially important in weather system
    formation, and are an important link in the earth’s hydrological balance.
    • Understanding ocean dynamics is important for fish stock assessment, ship
    routing, predicting global circulation consequences of phenomena such as el
    nino, forecasting, and monitoring storms so as to reduce the pact of disaster on
    marine navigation, off-shore exploration, and coastal se studies of ocean
    dynamics include wind and wave retrieval (direction, speed, andbe mesoscale
    feature identification, bathymetry, water termperature, and ocean productivity.
    Ocean application of remote sensing include

    1. Ocean pattern identification


    2. Storm forcasting
    3. Oil spill
    4. Shipping
    5. Inter – tidal zone
    6. Sea ice
    Ocean pattern identification

    • Currents, regional circulation patterns, and shears .


    • Frontal zones, internal waves, gravity waves, eddies, up-welling zones, and stallieu
    waterbathymetry.
    • Ocean feature analysis includes determing current strength and direction, amplitude
    and direction of surface wind , measuring sea-surface temperatures and exploreing the
    dynamic relationship and influences between ocean and atmosphere.
    Knowledge currents, wind speed, tides, storm
    surges, and surface wave height can facilitate
    ship routing. Sea floor modelling supports
    waste disposal and resource extraction
    planning activities.
    • Ocean circulation patterns can be
    determined by the examination of
    mesoscale features such as eddies and
    surface gravity waves. This knowledge is
    used in global climate modelling, pollution
    monitoring. Navigation, and forecasting for
    offshore operations.
    Storm forcasting

    • Wind and wave retrieval fish stock and marine mammal assessment
    • Water temperature monitoring
    • Water quality
    • Ocean productivity, phytoplankton concentration, and drift
    • Ocean colour analysis refers to a method of indicating the ‘health’ of the ocean, by
    measuring oceanic biological activities by optical means.
    • The sea water colour depends on the absorption and scattering due to water
    molecules and suspended particles or planktons.
    • Radiation can penetrate into deep clear water and is scattered by the water
    volume, causing the typical bluish colour.
    • Turbid waters cannot be penetrated and radiation is
    scattered near the surface, greenish or yellowish
    colour. The water colour depends not only on
    suspended solids, but also on the chlorophyll of
    planktons within the water body.
    • Chlorophyl in the water can be detected in the region
    of 0.45-0.65 m. Phytoplanktons are significant
    building blocks in the world’s food chain and grow
    with the assistance of sunlight and the pigment
    chlorophyll.
    • Chlorophyll, which absorbs red light (resulting in the
    ocean’s blue-green colour), is considered to be a good
    indicator of the health of the ocean and its level of
    productivity.
    Oil spill
    • Mapping and predicting oil spill extent and drift
    • Strategic support for oil spill emergency response
    decisions
    • identification of natural oil seepage areas for
    exploration.
    • Spill location
    • Size and extent of the spill
    • Direction and magnitude of oil movement
    • Wind, current, wave information for predicting future
    oil movement.
    • Remote sensing offers the advantages of
    being able to observe events in remote and
    often inaccessible areas.
    • For ocean spill, remote sensing data can
    provide information on the rate and direction
    of oil movement through multitemporel
    imaging , and input to drift prediction
    modeling and may facilitate in targeting
    clean up and control effort.
    The sar sensor have and advantage over
    optical sensor in that they can provide
    data under poor weather conditions and
    during darkness.
    • The sar sensors can image oil spills
    through the localized suppression of
    brugg scale waves. Oil spill are visible
    on a radar image as circular,
    curvilinear or linear features with a
    darker tone than the surrounding
    ocean.
    • For, spill identification, high
    resolution sensors are generally
    required.
    • Laser fluirosensors are the best
    sensor fir oil spill detection and
    have the capability of identifying
    oil on shores, ice and snow, and
    determining what type if oil has
    been spilled.
    SHIPPING

    • Navigation routing
    • Traffic density studies
    • Operational fisheries surveillance
    • Near-shore bathymetry mapping
    • For ship route planning, SAR data is transmitted to ships in real time. The SAR systems
    provide long-range, high-resolution images using extensive electronic processing of data,
    and can monitor the ocean surface and detect wave height and movement. Scatterometers,
    high-frequency microwave radar sensors designed to sense ocean surface condition, are
    used to measure wind speed and direction at the surface, combined data from these sensors
    providle reliable information on ocean activity and facilitate efficient route planning.
    • Storms are exhaustively mapped using remotely sensed
    wave and wind information in combination with buoy
    data, and sen ice tracking is done using microwave
    sensors in combination with high-resolution satellite
    imagery.
    • Ships themselves are tracked with radar to pinpoint
    their location and proximity to ather ships, using up-to-
    date remote sensing information, ships can travel via the
    most efficient routes, and can avoid hazardous
    conditions and collisions, to transport without losses.
    • Finally, is can aceident takes place during shipping,
    remote sensing can be used to minimize the dumags,
    rescue personnel use radar and acrial sensing to quickly
    locate a damaved ship.
    Inter-tidal zone

    • Tidal and storm effects


    • Delineation of the land’water interface
    • Mapping shoreline features beach dynamics
    • Coastal vegetation mapping
    • Human activity/impact.
    • The sea-surface height is the range at a given
    instant from the sea surfuce to u reference
    ellipsoid.The sea –surface height is the dunge at
    the sea a fe, ellipsoid. The speed influence sea-
    surface height.
    • The united states is the first country to launch satellite-borne altimeters: seasat in 1978 and
    geosat in 1985.
    • Additional missions were launched by the european space ageney (esa)and the united states in
    the 1990s: ers-1 (1991-96), topex/poseidon (since 1992), and ers-2 (since 1995).
    • These missions are the part of international oceang graphic and meteorological programmes,
    such as the world ocean cireulation experiment (woce) and tropical occan and global
    atmosphere (toga) that in turm are linked to the world climate research programme (wcrp).
    • The lidar systems use lasers as the emitting source (normally a red wavelength of around
    532nm)and receive the reflected optical signal. They are mounted on airborne (aircraft or
    helicopter) rather than satellite platforms and can provide topographic measurements, for
    example, inter-tidal, or subsurface bathymetry (bathymetric measurement are dependent on
    the water clarity).
    Sea ice

    • For people living in northern environment, ice is a


    common phenomenon that affects their local
    activities. Ice covers a substantial part of the earth’s
    surface and is a major factor in commercial shipping
    and fishing industries, coast guard and construction
    operations, and global climate change studies.
    • Polar sea ice seasonally may cover an area of roughly
    25 million km^2.
    • Ice concentration
    • Ice type/age/motion
    • Iceberg detection and tracking
    • surface topography
    • Tactical identification of leads, navigation, and safe shipping routes/rescue
    • ice condition (state of decay) .
    • historical ice and iceberg conditions and dynamics for planning purposes
    • wildlife habitat
    • Pollution monitoring
    • meteorological/global change research
