AbstractThe aim of this study is to get the information of oceanic features around Japanese islands from satellite data. We show first the relationship between ocean color, which represents phytoplankton pigment concentration, and sea surface temperature by using truth data compiled by JODC. Next the ocean color data by Nimbus-7 CZCS is treated, and then chlorophyll map and thermal pattern are derived. These satellite derived maps are classified with a unsupervised clustering technique. As a result, it is found that our results processed from the satellite data partially coincide with the truth data by ships in respect of the relationship between ocean color and temperature.
