Satellite-derived chlorophyll-a concentrations for Lake Mulargia (Sardinia, Italy) using Mixture Density Networks and Sentinel-2 and Landsat 8 imagery

<p>This dataset contains satellite-derived chlorophyll-a data of Lake Mulargia (Sardinia, Italy) for the period 29 Mar. 2013 - 31 Jan. 2021. Chlorophyll-a concentrations&nbsp;have been calculated using Mixture Density Networks and Sentinel-2 and Landsat 8 imagery.</p> <p>Mixture Density Networks are a class of neural networks that tackle the inverse problem by modelling the multimodal distribution of target variables using a mixture of Gaussians.
