Landsat Algal Bloom

Hi guys! I’m trying to detect algal bloom using Landsat images in Aral Lake… do you have any ideas on how to do it? Thank you !!!

Check out these papers for a few ideas:

The most difficult aspect is that algal blooms can be seen by Chl-a in Landsat, but not by their Phycocyanin, as Landsat does not directly observe the wavelength at which they have an absorption feature.

Best of luck!
