Assessment of Hurricane Ivan impact on chlorophyll-a in Pensacola Bay by MODIS 250Â m remote sensing

► Assessment of Hurricane effects on Chlorophyll-a in Pensacola Bay by MODIS-250 m remote sensing. ► Integrating remote sensing with rainfall, storm surge, and river flood. ► Urban stormwater runoff and storm-surge inundation were found to have simulated chlorophyll bloom. ► Storm surge was found to effectively flush polluted water from the bay to the Gulf of Mexico.
