Abstract

Satellite data sets, obtained from different sensors during 1996-2001 years, are used for coastal zone of the eastern Gulf of Finland study. The effectiveness of using satellite images for study of a change of ecological state of coastal and water environment, features of water dynamics, variability of concentration of total suspended matter, phytoplankton blooming and ice cover characteristics are shown. The results obtained are comparing with previous ones, for period since the middle 70s till the middle 90s.
