I. Introduction to ImageJ |
Launch ImageJ and examine Gulf
of Maine satellite images downloaded from the GoMOOS website.
Become familiar with several tools and learn about the
different images available. |
|
II. Activity One: The Year of the Ocean |
Compare, stack, and animate monthly composite
images of sea surface temperature and chlorophyll in the
Gulf of Maine. |
|
III. Activity Two: Working with Real Satellite Data |
Explore and calibrate digital satellite
data in an image format. Determine the temperature ranges
within the Gulf Stream and over Georges Bank. |
|
IV. Activity Three: How do the sea surface temperatures in
an image compare to the temperatures measured on GoMOOS buoys? |
Overlay a map of buoy locations onto a
sequence of SST images and extract the SST at each buoy.
Compare these with SST measured at GoMOOS buoys at the
time of the satellite overpass. |
|
V. Activity Four: The Coccolithophore Caper |
| Import “raw” data and enhance
the images to see a coccolithophore bloom in the Gulf
of Maine. |
