    Abstract
    In this article, data sampling, spectral measurement, TM image band selection, mosaic, image processing and computer auto classify will be described. An active economic, accurate, and quick method to quantify chlorophyll (CHL) and phytoplankton biomass (PPB) had been designed out by using TM data with computer image processing system.

    Methods
    1. Spectrum Measurement and Data Sampling
      The in situ measurement and investigation were carried out during August 24 to 26, 1989. 12 sampling stations were selected by experts who is familiar with lake Taihu. These 12 sampling datas were used as the control data to calculate the CHL and PPB over the whole lake.

      12 spectral reflection and CHL curves were depicted using the in situ data. The spectral band ranges from 400nm to 900nm corresponding to the TM data from bandl to band4.


    2. TM Image acquirement
      Landsat TM data was got from Remote Sensing Ground Station of Chinese Academy of Sciences in may 30, 1989. Two scenes of TM image (path=119, row=38 39) were combined into one scene (6) (Including water body, land, urban and island). By means of task "DF' of image process system the working region of Taihu scene can copy out.


    3. Correlation Analysis and Image Processing
      The 12 groups of sampling data are listed in table 1.

      Station no. CHL (ug/1) PPB (mg/1) Depth (m) Weather
      1 7.5 22.61 1.85 fine
      2 13.8 43.85 3.00 fine
      11 9.9 31.90 2.90 cloudy
      5 2.2 7.42 2.50 fine
      7 2.5 7.70 1.90 fine
      4 3.8 11.97 2.70 fine
      3 3.5 9.09 2.50 fine
      10 3.9 9.15 3.4 cloudy
      9 2.7 6.81 3.00 fine
      8 3.4 11.25 2.70 fine
      6 2.7 6.86 2.20 fine
      12 4.5 19.94 2.60 cloudy


      A.The TM data characters were listed in table 2.

      TM band Band range Colour Spectrum characters
      band 1 0.45-052 blue water quality,depth
      band2 0.52-0.60 green distinguish water and wat.weed
      band3 0.63-0.69 red enhance vegetible, non-vegetible CHL absorbed band
      band4 0.76-0.90 near
      infrared
      great contrast between plant and water. obvious reflection for water weeds.
      band 5 1.55-1.75 near
      infrared
      distinguish vegetibles,obvious for soil moisture
      band 6 10.4-12.5 thermal
      infrared
      calculate the surface tem. and eatimate the plant production
      band7 2.08-2.35 mid
      infrared
      to map geological structure
