Understanding the composition of suspended particles in the ocean is essential for unraveling biogeochemical cycles, assessing ecosystem health, and improving remote sensing algorithms. Among the suite of optical tools available to oceanographers, in situ hyperspectral backscattering measurements such as Sequoia’s Hyper-bb have emerged as a powerful technique for differentiating between various particle types such as phytoplankton, detritus, and mineral sediments.
