Conceptual model of the proposed work.
Detailed Description
Conceptual model of the proposed work. Dissolved and particulate matter and chlorophyll-a (representing phytoplankton) correlate with optically active water-quality constituents. Because of their reflective characteristics, these constituents can be measured from satellites by using optical sensors.

High Resolution Temporal and Spatial Mapping of Mercury and Methylmercury in Surface Waters of the Sacramento – San Joaquin Delta
Mercury (Hg) is a contaminant of significant concern in the San Francisco Bay-Delta estuary and watershed (Bay-Delta). The formation, fate, and transport of methylmercury (MeHg), a particularly toxic organic form of Hg that readily bioaccumulates in wildlife, has been studied extensively throughout the system. However, there is widespread recognition of the need for more comprehensive monitoring...
