DETECTION OF MESOSCALE OCEANIC FEATURES USING RADARSAT-1, AVHRR AND SEAWIFS IMAGES AND THE POSSIBLE LINK WITH JACK MACKEREL (TRACHURUS MURPHYI) DISTRIBUTION IN CENTRAL CHILE

In order to verify the ability of RADARSAT-1 images to detect mesoscale oceanic features and the possible link of these oceanographic patterns with jack mackerel (Trachurus murphyi) distribution in the waters off central Chile, a project was developed as part of the Canada Centre for Remote Sensing...
