Using new algorithms, we derive estimates of partitioned absorption (a) and scattering (b) coefficients from high-resolution, hyperspectral aircraft imagery collected with the PHILLS sensor. During May 2002, we conducted simultaneous ship and aircraft surveys in a dynamic environment in the northern Gulf of Mexico (coastal waters near Mobile Bay, Alabama). Optical measurements included hyperspectral remote sensing reflectance, partitioned absorption coefficients (phytoplankton, detrital, and colored dissolved organic matter components), beam attenuation ...
