Scientific objectives<\/h3>

\u00a0<\/p>

The countries of the South Pacific are highly dependent on their coastal zone for food security and tourism. Traditionally, there have been many conflicts between agriculture and mining. The challenges of maintaining the health (good biogeochemical balance) of coastal and coral environments are crucial.<\/p>

Chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) can carry contaminants and nutrient salts that have a major impact on the health of lagoon areas, even at great distances from the coast during heavy rainfall events. The DROPS project aims to :<\/p>

  1. an overall assessment of the CDOM's land-lagoon transfers to the world's largest enclosed lagoon in New Caledonia, and to the coastal areas of the Fiji Islands<\/li>
  2. Satellite mapping of CDOM plumes and feathers is based on daily MODIS 500 m Aqua\/Terra radiance data and made available via a geoportal.<\/li>
  3. CDOM spectrofluorescence measurements are used to characterise its components and identify its origin (mangroves, resuspension by seagrass beds, coral, terrigenous inputs linked to agricultural activity, PAH pollutants and anthropogenic tracers).<\/li><\/ol>

    Satellite maps Fiji Islands<\/h3>

    \u00a0<\/p>

    Daily CDOM maps from the American MODIS high-resolution water colour sensor (500 metres) repatriated from NASA were re-calculated using different regional algorithms (turbidity Ouillon et al., 2008, CDOM, Chla Wattelez et al., 2016), geographically re-projected onto the Fiji area and masked for land and clouds (in black) by a VALHYSAT processing chain (Dupouy, 2010; Lef\u00e8vre, 2010). The products are available online<\/a>.<\/p>

    Figure 1 (September 2002) shows the enrichments around the main island of Viti Levu for CDOM visible in the north-west and east of the island. Enrichment in small scattering particles (bbp (m-1)) is highest in the north-west. Chlorophyll enrichment extends further offshore, impacting a larger area around the islands and affecting coral zones over larger surfaces. Turbidity remains very low outside the lagoons, and very localised. To the south-east of Viti Levu, a plume localised near the coast (C) occurs southwards from Laucala Bay and is caused by the Ba River in heavy rain.<\/p>

    Laucala Bay Lagoon South Fiji<\/span><\/h3>

    \u00a0<\/p>

    The distribution of CDOM (acdom350 nm) from the first DROPS survey in June 2015 highlights the presence of an enriched zone near the east coast of the Suva peninsula, as well as high values in the Rewa River estuary (values of acdom(350 nm) m-1 > 1 m-1 in red, values typical of CDOM-rich coastal environments).<\/p>

    The distributions of CDOM in June, November 2015 and October 2016 (after heavy rainfall) and of its compounds in fluorescence indicate distributions impacted by - the Rewa River, - Suva Bay waters (PAHs), - corals at bay closure.<\/p>
