Abstract
The sea features on half-closed bays and coastal areas were investigated by satellite remote sensing. The turbidity on the Kanmon area and Hiroshima Bay was estimated by using a new classification technique with the aid of the sea truth data. The performance of this method on a personal computer was examined for comparison with the most likelihood method (MLM) in the course of the investigation. It has been found that this method is more stable against noise and fluctuation of system parameters in addition to the improved computing time than the MLM, and that the classified results are almost same as those of the MLM. This technique was extended and applied to the environmental researches on the coastal areas of the southernmost Korea which face the Sea of Japan and the industrialization has been emphasized there. The data used in the present study are LANDSAT MSS and TM, NOAA AVHRR and MOS-1 MESSR.
