A global end-member approach to derive <i>a</i><sub>CDOM</sub>(440) from near-surface optical measurements

<p>This study establishes an optical inversion scheme for deriving the absorption coefficient of colored (or chromophoric, depending on the literature) dissolved organic material (CDOM) at the 440&thinsp;nm wavelength, which can be applied to global water masses with near-equal efficacy. T...
