Outflows from bays such as Kaliningrad and Curonian ones have a significant impact on the hydrochemical and hydrobiological processes in the Baltic Sea. Therefore, outflow is an important object of observation both using traditional hydrological measurements and Earth remote sensing data. Observations of runoff using optical sensors have become widespread, but the observation data can be very sparse in time due to cloudiness. Radar images can be used to supplement these observations. To do this, it is necessary to understand the mechanisms of outflow manifestation in them and conditions of their occurrence. One of these conditions is currents that arise between the bay and the sea as a result of the difference in water levels. The aim of the article is to develop a method for assessing the conditions favorable for observing outflow in radar images based on satellite radar altimetry data of the studied bays and the Baltic Sea. The paper presents the results of a correlation study of outflow observations and the ratio of bay and sea water levels, and also provides an assessment of the applicability of the proposed methodology and an analysis of the possibility of its extension by using the discharge data of rivers flowing into the studied bays.
Keywords: satellite altimetry, outflow from the bay, SAR-C Sentinel-1, Sentinel-3, Curonian Lagoon, Kaliningrad Lagoon, Baltic Sea
