Abstract

The feasibility of laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) method for chlorophyll concentration determination in water was investigated in this study. The chlorophyll fluorescence spectra were received by a spiral-wound unclad optical fiber system. Baseline and smoothing correction methods were studied. Statistical equations were established between reference data and fluorescence spectra by linear regression and partial least squares (PLSs) regression. The PLS regression outperformed linear regression by higher correlation coefficient of 0.9996063 and root mean square error value of 0.0221807. Based on the results, it was concluded that laser-induced fluorescence method with a spiral-wound unclad optical fiber system was suitable for chlorophyll concentration determination in water, and PLS regression was a reliable method for fluorescence spectra analysis.
