Satellite-derived proxies for phytoplankton (Chlorophyll-a (Chl), Fluorescence Line Height (FLH), Maximum Chlorophyll Index (MCI)) and suspended sediment (Total Suspended Matter (TSM)) were jointly analyzed for two clusters of the Great Barrier Reef Wet tropics (GBRW;  15\u00b0\u201319.5\u00b0S; Queensland) and the Van Diemen Gulf (VDG; 9\u00b0\u201313\u00b0S; Northern Territory). The analysis of time-series and Hovm\u00f6ller diagrams of the four MERIS products provided a unique perspective on the processes linking phytoplankton blooms and river runoff, or resuspension, across spatio-temporal scales. Both regions are characterized by a complex oceanography and seasonal inflows of sediment, freshwater and nutrients during the tropical wet season months (November to April). The GBRW is characterized by a great variability in water clarity (Secchi depth 0\u201325 m). A long history of agricultural land use has led to a large increase in the seasonal discharge of sediments and nutrients, triggering seasonal phytoplankton blooms (&gt;0.4 mg\u2219m\u22123) between January and April. In contrast, the VDG is a poorly flushed, turbid (Secchi depth &lt;5 m) environment with strong tidal-energy (4\u20138 m) and very limited land use. Phytoplankton blooms here were found to have higher Chl concentrations (&gt;1.0 mg\u2219m\u22123) than in the GBRW, occurring up to twice a year between January and April. Over the 10-year MERIS mission, a weak decline in Chl and TSM was observed for the VDG (Sen slope: \u22122.85%\/decade, \u03c4 = \u22120.32 and \u22123.57%\/decade,  \u03c4 = \u22120.24; p 0.05), while no significant trend in those two satellite products was observed in the GBRW. Cyanobacteria surface algal blooms occur in both regions between August and October. The MCI and FLH products were found to adequately complement Chl, while TSM provided relevant insight for the assessment of sediment resuspension and river runoff.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs6042963","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,4,1]],"date-time":"2014-04-01T11:07:06Z","timestamp":1396350426000},"page":"2963-2988","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["ESA-MERIS 10-Year Mission Reveals Contrasting Phytoplankton Bloom Dynamics in Two Tropical Regions of Northern Australia"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"David","family":"Blondeau-Patissier","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"North Australian Marine Research Alliance (NAMRA), Darwin 0909, Australia"},{"name":"Research Institute for the Environment and Livelihoods (RIEL), Charles Darwin University, Darwin 0909, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Schroeder","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CSIRO Land and Water (CLW), Brisbane 4001, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vittorio","family":"Brando","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CSIRO Land and Water (CLW), Canberra 2601, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stefan","family":"Maier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Institute for the Environment and Livelihoods (RIEL), Charles Darwin University, Darwin 0909, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Arnold","family":"Dekker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CSIRO Land and Water (CLW), Canberra 2601, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2605-6104","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stuart","family":"Phinn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geography, Planning and Environmental Management (GPEM), The University of Queensland, Brisbane 4072, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,4,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"39","DOI":"10.3354\/meps09453","article-title":"Annual cycles and spring blooms in phytoplankton: Don\u2019t abandon Sverdrup completely","volume":"443","author":"Chiswell","year":"2011","journal-title":"Mar.
