Simple statistical formulas for estimating biogeochemical properties of suspended particulate matter in the southern Baltic Sea potentially useful for optical remote sensing applications* Financial support for this research was provided by Statutory Research Programme No. I.1 at the Institute of Oceanology, Polish Academy of Sciences, by research grant No. N N306 2838 33 awarded to Sławomir B. Woźniak by the Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education, and by the ‘SatBałtyk’ project funded by the European Union through the European Regional Development Fund (contract No. POIG.01.01.02-22-011/09 entitled ‘The Satellite Monitoring of the Baltic Sea Environment’).

Simple statistical formulas for estimating various biogeochemical properties of suspended particulate matter in the southern Baltic Sea are presented in this paper. These include formulas for estimating mass concentrations of suspended particulate matter (SPM), particulate organic matter (POM), part...
