Dr. Francisco San Juan
Coastal Habitat Protection Plan
Plan: Collect and integrate existing fisheries, habitat,
and other
related data, including:
-Past and present spawning and nursery areas
Critical Fish Habitats:
-Freshwater, esturine and marine areas
-One of the ??? areas to be studied
Chowan River Basin
Northeast NC
Southeast VA
Focus of CHPP Chowan Student
-Linkages between Fisheries and habitats
-Indicators of biological or ecosystem habitat and integrity
-Status and trends measurements
-Evaluation threats to habitat ???
-Use remote sensing to implement the above
How?
-One of the capability of RS is studying the environment
Remote Sensing Plan of Study
-Develop a comprehesive background database for the Chowan River
Basin
-Determine the Availability of LANDSAT-7
-Use digital remote sensing techniques to identify specific ???
??? on images ??? the study area

Coastwatch Data
Coastwatch SST Products
Coastwatch makes product available by
-ocean surface winds ocean
-color
POES SST product
Spatial resolution: 1 or 4 kilometer resolution
Temporal Resolution: Combined coverage of the two
polar orbiting satellites provides coverage of any given area approximately
every six hours
Data Processing Software
-Data Acquistion
-Data Usage
-How do you decode Coastwatch Data
Dataset Utilies
-get a dimension
-get attribute
-get values
-calculate
Plotting Utility
Plot GIF: ??? Coastwatch data into GIF
Future Plan:
Develop an optimal interpolation (Object Analysis)
scheme to produce coastal SST climatologies in all US coastal areas.
