The ability to understand the biogeophysical parameters that create ocean color in coastal waters is fundamental to exploiting remote sensing for coastal applications. The apparent color, which is the upwelling radiance of large water bodies is determined by the absorption and scattering of light caused by the water, the organic and inorganic material contained in the water, and the bottom, when the albedo is high enough and the water is shallow enough.
