Figure S1. Comparison of estimated Chl (μg·cm−2) values from different calibration
equations available in the literature. This study used the Connelly [30] equation because it
is based on R. mangle, the dominant species in the study area. Note: Cerovic et al. [59]
presented two equations in their paper, one derived from their analysis and one consensus
equation based on eight models. In this plot Cerovic 2012* (blue dotted line) refers to the
consensus equation.
