Abstract
Chlorophyll is a pigment contained in a plant cell that contributes to generate energy for organisms, including phytoplankton. Phytoplankton have been monitored using satellite remote sensing technology, where the satellite sensor can capture the earth surface, including the data on chlorophyll-a (Chl-a). The goal of this study was to analyse the changes in phytoplankton biomass throughout 2012-2020 by using the satellite remote sensing information. The study sites of this study were Sematan and Santubong from Sarawak and Putatan and Kuala Penyu, Kota Kinabalu. The Chl-a data were acquired from NASA Ocean Color website using MODIS-Aqua (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) sensor. From this project, the trend of the Chl-a concentration from the satellite database were observed. The highest Chl-a concentration reported was 12.082 mg/m3 and not to be considered as bloom formation.
