we first identified the peak Chla of the time series and then looked backwards in time to find the start of the bloom (Brody et al. , 2013). The end of the bloom was determined as the first week when Chla [...] Gaps in the plots indicate that the corresponding phenological indexice could not be calculated because, the peak of the bloom was in the first or last month of the period investigated or the Chla did not [...] values below the threshold. Both issues avoid the estimation of the start, end and duration of the bloom. Figures 40 to 43 present the estimated start, peak, end and total duration of the dia- SynSenPFT
