dc.description.abstract |
South Africa’s fresh water resources are under threat by Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs). A comprehensive and cost effective method for wide area detection and monitoring of HABs is therefore needed to manage and where possible circumvent the negative impact HABs may have on the country’s aquatic ecosystems. Current commercial radiometers used for such applications are often too costly to purchase in numbers. This study focuses on the performance of a low cost, in-house developed prototype radiometer, Hyperspectral Device for Radiometric Observations in Water (HyDROW). HyDROW’s performance has been evaluated against data registered with a commercially available Hyperspectral Tethered Spectral Radiometer Buoy (HyperTSRB) during a field campaign at Loskop Dam in South Africa. The Loskop Dam is at risk for HABs and has been selected given its diverse environments from an optical perspective. Measurements were made at five optically diverse test points. The maximum percentage difference between the HyperTSRB and HyDROW were ~8% in the blue, ~19% in the green and ~24% in the red bands of the spectrum. The correlation coefficients between the radiometers range from 0.97 at the most turbid of test sites, to better than 0.99 in clearer waters. |
