Chlorophyll detection on the GSL Test GSL MODIS algorithm on other years Look at other satellite options MODIS land team, other MODIS algorithms, MERIS Use spectra to develop new algorithms bottom influence on signal phycocyanins - cyanobacteria Future applications of RS method Great Salt Lake use chlorophyll maps with Artemia populations use chlorophyll maps with hydrological modeling Other Saline Lakes… Next steps…
