Research group Group Kratzer: The Marine Remote Sensing Group

The Marine Remote Sensing Group uses optical measurements in aquatic systems (mostly Baltic Sea and Lake Vänern) combined with satellite data to improve environmental monitoring of aquatic ecosystems. The data is also used to assess effects of climate change.

The group has a focus on developing regional algorithms for improved remote sensing of coastal waters. Besides that the group leader, Associate Professor Susanne Kratzer provides training in bio-optics to the main Baltic Sea monitoring laboratories.

Research projects

Improvement and development of national guidelines for marine bio-optical measurements

The purpose of the project is to give advice to the Swedish marine monitoring groups regarding measurements of optical properties in Swedish waters, compare measurements of chlorophyll, coloured dissolved organic matter, suspended particulate matter and turbidity (turbidity), and to harmonise the measurements protocols between the Swedish monitoring groups.
