COURSES



CMOF 6445 - Oceanographic Remote Sensing I                            
4 credit hours
The course objectives are to provide the student with the theoretical and practical knowledge of the fundamental concepts of remote sensing and its application in oceanography. The course conferences will be complemented with field and laboratory work in the processing of imaging and instrument data. The students will be exposed to different techniques in the measurement, processing and interpretation of spectral data, focusing in the development of algorithms to derive chlorophyll in the ocean surface using satellite imagery.

Instructor: Dr. Roy A. Armstrong                                                    
Prontuario (Syllabus) CMOF6445


COURSE RESOURCES:



CMOF 8446 - Oceanographic Remote Sensing II                          
4 credit hours
Discussion and analysis of the most advanced techniques in remote sensing for oceanographic data collection and validation. The course will focus on the insitu data obtained by field optical instrumentation using high spectral resolution sensors. Each student will develop a research project focused on the application of these sensos that will presented, both orally and written. Also each student will develop a presentation based on the topic assigned.

Instructor: Dr. Roy A. Armstrong                                                    
Prontuario (Syllabus) CMOF8446


CIMA 8998 - Special Problems in Bio-Optical Oceanography    
1-3 credit hours
Individual research on selected topics in the application of remote sensing in bio-optical oceanography. The students will develop a research project focused on the integration of field optical instrumentation, including the use of high spectral resolution sensors.

Instructor: Dr. Roy A. Armstrong 


CMOB 6619 - Bio-Optical Oceanography
4 credit hours
This course will provide the student with theoretical and practical knowledge of the fundemental concepts of water optics and it's application in biological oceanography. Field work and analysis of optical data will complement the theoretical concepts presneted in class and will provide the student with experience in the use of field of optical instrumentation adn the processing and interpretation of this data. Students will develop a research project that will consist of an oral presentation and a written report.

Instructor: Dr. Roy A. Armstrong
