Empirical Ocean Colour Algorithms for Estimating Sea Surface Salinity in Coastal Water of Terengganu. Pertanika Journal of Science & Technology, 25(4).https://repoemc.ukm.my/handle/123456789/1571This study presents an empirical approach for estimating sea surface salinity (SSS) from remote sensing of ocean colour. The analysis is based on two important empirical relationships of in-water optical properties. The first involves the behaviour of the optical properties of coloured dissolved organic matter (CDOM) under conservative mixing along the salinity gradient. The second is the tight relationship between CDOM and water-leaving radiance.enSalinityocean colourempirical algorithmscoloured dissolved organic matterSouth China SeaJournal
