WIDE-RANGE GROUND/BOARD-BASED SPECTRAL METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE CHLOROPHYLL а CONCENTRATION IN SEAWA

The article describes solution of the task of developing a wide-range device for measuring the chlorophyll а concentration in seawater. The principle of operation is based on remote determination of ranges where the pollution degree exceeds a certain threshold value where the change of regimes is required. The author has noted that the threshold value can be based on both sanitary norms and objectives of the system effective operation. The conducted research resulted in development of the general concept of the wide-range ground/board-based system for determining the degree of seawater pollution with chlorophyll. The author has developed an operational algorithm of the above system functioning and has analyzed the issues of the optimal structuring of the system.
