Description:The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) satellite sensor, already used to determine sea surface temperatures, has the sensitivity and dynamic range to provide usable data on sediment and chlorophyll for estuaries having a wide range in turbidity. The satellite also has an overpass frequency of 12 hours, and two daytime overpasses when two satellites are operating. For many larger estuaries (>100 km2 ), the AVHRR could improve analysis of processes and improve model verification.
