Abstract
In recent years, MODIS data were widely used in dynamic monitoring of Green Tide. However, the images may contain lots of mixed pixels because of coarse resolution, which will cause the error of the monitor result(1,2). In this paper, the monitoring error was quantitatively analyzed with the help of GF-1 WFV data, which has a high resolution of 16 meters and the monitoring result of which were considered to be accurate. The conclusions are as follows: there are errors in both dense and sparse Enteromorpha monitoring using MODIS data, and the error in sparse Enteromorpha is larger. Most of the error is concentrated on the edge of the floating Enteromorpha patch. MODIS has a good ability in observing the location of Enteromorpha, and it can play an important role in the dynamic monitoring of multi source data.
