Abstract
This chapter presents the capabilities and prospects for combining numerical ocean modeling and satellite remote-sensing techniques for monitoring algal blooms. Section 5.1 first describes the nature, capabilities, and limitations of ecosystem modeling of marine environments. Section 5.2 presents some specific features of regional to global model simulations, highlighting applications from the Equatorial Pacific, tropical, and subtropical waters including the Southern Benguela upwelling system, the Mediterranean Sea, and European continental shelf waters.
