Bio-optical characterization of the Salish Sea, Canada, towards improved chlorophyll algorithms for MODIS and Sentinel-3

Bio-optical characterization of the Salish Sea, Canada, towards improved chlorophyll algorithms for MODIS and Sentinel-3

The goal of this research was to improve ocean colour chlorophyll a (Chla) retrievals in the coastal Case 2 waters of the Salish Sea by characterizing the main drivers of optical variability and using this information to parameterize empirical algorithms based on an optical classification. This was...
