مدل نیمه تحلیلی دو باند ساده برای بازیابی ضرایب جذب خاص در آبهای ساحلی

A non-linear iterative method is used to replace the traditional spectral slope technique in initializing the total absorption decomposition model. Based on comparison of absorption coefficient by QAA and two-band semi-analytical model (TSAA) models with field measurements collected from the West Florida Shelf waters and Bohai Sea, it is shown that both models are effective in estimating absorption coefficients from the West Florida Shelf waters, but the TSAA model is superior to the QAA model. Use of the TSAA model in estimating absorption coefficient in the West Florida Shelf and Bohai Sea decreases the uncertainty of estimation by 1.3–74.7% from the QAA model. The TSAA model’s sensitivity to the input parameters was evaluated by varying one parameter and keeping the others fixed at their default values. Our results indicate that the TSAA model has quite a strong noise tolerance to addressing the field data of the total absorption coefficient.
