AGUIRRE GOMEZ, Raúl. Spectral Reflectance Analysis of the Caribbean Sea. Geofís. Intl [online]. 2014, vol.53, n.4, pp.385-398. ISSN 2954-436X.
Reflectance spectral curves were analysed by a derivative method. Derivative reflectance spectra revealed concealed peaks of both reflectance and absorption curves of Caribbean seawater and elements contained within it. Reflectance curves showed a predominant blue colour (400-500 nm) characteristic of Caribbean oligotrophic waters, conspicuous peaks result from the optical properties of chlorophyll a and seawater. Reflectance curves had a similar spectral response. This paper analyses reflectance spectra of surface seawater at 31 stations in the Caribbean Sea during the summer of 2001.
