Biogenic films are very thin surface oils, frequently observed near aquaculture farms, that affect the roughness and the optical properties of the sea surface, making them visible in SAR and multispectral images. The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential of satellite SAR and multispectral sensors in the detection of biogenic oil fil...

Remote sensing is a promising tool for the detection of floating marine plastics offering extensive area coverage and frequent observations. While floating plastics are reported in high concentrations in many places around the globe, no referencing dataset exists either for understanding the spectral behavior of floating plastics in a real environm...
