摘要

Submarine Groundwater Discharge (SGD) is receiving considerable attention in the literature as a major pathway for anthropogenic pollutants travelling from land to sea. SGD can be extensive and carry a significant nutrient load to coastal areas, in reported cases exceeding contamination due to surface water runoff. Recognition that SGD is an important pathway for freshwater, associated nutrients, contaminants and other materials to near shore marine environments necessitates the development of tools that will facilitate regional coastal zone assessments of its environmental impact, including localization, spatial extent and magnitude as well as the provision of geographical and geomorphological constraints for follow-up studies aiming at precise quantification of freshwater and associated pollutant discharges. We propose that thermal remote sensing coupled with field verification might be the most effective and affordable means to assess the regional extent of groundwater discharge. This paper explores the potential of freely available Landsat ETM+ imagery for SGD detection around the coastline of Ireland as a preliminary constraint for subsequent quantification through the integration of high resolution airborne thermal imagery and geochemical tracing techniques (Radon and the Radium quartet) in the ongoing study. The results show that sea surface temperature values (SST) derived from the Landsat ETM+ thermal waveband are sufficient to detect anomalous zones of cooler water in close proximity to the shoreline, likely associated with SGD. A preliminary list of potential SGD locations in Ireland derived through this approach is provided.
