TL;DR: The Ocean Portable Hyperspectral Imager for Low-Light Spectroscopy (Ocean PHILLS) is a hyperspectral imager specifically designed for imaging the coastal ocean that uses a thinned, backsideilluminated CCD for high sensitivity and an all-reflective spectrograph with a convex grating in an Offner configuration to produce a nearly distortionfree image.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a global optimal solution (GOS) method to obtain ocean surface velocities from sequences of thermal (AVHRR) space-borne images by inverting the heat conservation equation.

TL;DR: In this paper, a nonlinear model has been created for estimating motion field under the constraint of conservation of intensity, and an algorithm with progressive relaxation of the overconstraint to improve the performance of the velocity estimation is also proposed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed view of the sub-mesoscale variability in a part of the Great Barrier Reef lagoon, Australia, that includes a number of small islands was obtained by using a "stereo" pair of 2-m-resolution visible-band images that were acquired just 54 s apart by the WorldView-3 satellite near-surface current and vorticity were extracted at a 50m resolution from those data using a cross-correlation technique and an optical flow method, each yielding a similar result.

TL;DR: In this article, an initial validation study at the Virginia Coast Reserve relating airborne hyperspectral imagery (HSI) to in situ spectral and geotechnical measurements through a spectral-geotechnically lookup table (LUT) is presented.
