description As fundamental geophysical information, the high-precision detection of shallow water bathymetry is critical data support for the utilization of island resources and coral reef protection delimitation. In recent years, the combination of active and passive remote sensing technologies has led to a revolutionary breakthrough in satellite-derived bathymetry (SDB). Optical SDB extracts bathymetry by quantifying light–water–bottom interactions. Therefore, the apparent differences in the reflectance of different bottom types in specific wavelength bands are a core component of SDB. In this study, refined classification was performed for complex seafloor sediment and geomorphic features in coral reef habitats. A multi-model synergistic SDB fusion approach constrained by coral reef habitat classification based on the deep learning framework Mamba was constructed. The dual error of the global single model was suppressed by exploiting sediment and geomorphic partitions, as well as the accuracy complementarity of different models. Based on multispectral remote sensing imagery Sentinel-2 and the Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) active spaceborne lidar bathymetry data, wide-range and high-accuracy coral reef habitat classification results and bathymetry information were obtained for the Yuya Shoal (0–23 m) and Niihau Island (0–40 m). The results showed that the overall Mean Absolute Errors (MAEs) in the two study areas were 0.2 m and 0.5 m and the Mean Absolute Percentage Errors (MAPEs) were 9.77% and 6.47%, respectively. And R<sup>2</sup> reached 0.98 in both areas. The estimated error of the SDB fusion strategy based on coral reef habitat classification was reduced by more than 90% compared with classical SDB models and a single machine learning method, thereby improving the capability of SDB in complex geomorphic ocean areas.
