Ocean Color Experiment (OCE) on the OSTA-1 mission acquired ocean images at several widely separated locations on the earth. Digital computer enhancement and band ratioing techniques were used to emphasize patterns of chlorophyll and sediment distribution in the Yellow Sea and, in one case, of bottom topography in the Great Bahama Bank. Two scenes in the Gulf of Cadiz from orbits 30 and 32 were geometrically corrected to show the movement of plankton patches. This technique enabled ocean current velocities to be deduced. A duplicate of the OCE instrument mounted on a DFVLR aircraft was flown over an area of the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Portugal during the Shuttle mission.
