Abstract
This paper reports preliminary results of a research project carried on the Barra Bonita Reservoir to assess how the current remote sensing technology can provide useful information for limnological studies. Water samples collected simultaneously to the Landsat-5 overpass were used to calibrate Thematic Mapper data and to generate an empirical model for estimating the total surface chlorophyll pigment distribution in the reservoir.
