Observations:

* Kd was related to chlorophyll in a quantifiable manner * Kd was related to color in a quantifiable manner * Chlorophyll and color were strongly and consistently correlated across segments. * Chlorophyll was often correlate with turbidity and TSS, but to a lesser extent than color in strength

  • f correlation and spatial consistency.
