Abstract
We analysed the sensitivity of a Case-2 bio-optical model where the water reflectance is computed as a function of concentrations of three optical water quality parameters (WQPs) of three Italian lakes (Garda, Mantua and Trasimeno) and their specific absorption and backscattering coefficients. The modelled reflectance is computed based on the spectral characteristics of three optical sensors, on-board Landsat-8, Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-3. The variance-based analysis was able to quantify the lake-dependence for all (50,000 runs) the simulated reflectance. The results confirmed that Sentinel-3 water reflectance is sensitive to WQPs in all the trophic conditions investigated.
