Going Beyond Standard Ocean Color Observations: Lidar and Polarimetry
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 Passive ocean color images have provided a sustained synoptic view of the distribution of ocean optical properties and color and biogeochemical parameters for the past 20-plus years. These images have revolutionized our view of the ocean.

Particulate Backscattering in the Global Ocean: A Comparison of Independent Assessments
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 How well do we know the particulate backscattering coefficient (bbp) in the global ocean? Satellite lidar bbp has never been validated globally and few studies have compared lidar bbp to bbp derived from reflectances (via ocean color) or in situ ...

Image processing for smarter browsing of ocean color data products: investigating algal blooms [PDF]
, 2010 Remote sensing technology continues to play a significant role in the understanding of our environment and the investigation of the Earth. Ocean color is the water hue due to the presence of tiny plants containing the pigment chlorophyll, sediments, and ...

Ocean Color Spectrum Calculations [PDF]
Applied Optics, 1974 There is obvious value in developing the means for measuring a number of subsurface oceanographic parameters using remotely sensed ocean color data. The first step in this effort should be the development of adequate theoretical models relating the desired oceanographic parameters to the upwelling radiances to be observed.

Ocean color products from the Korean Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI)
Optics Express, 2013 The first geostationary ocean color satellite sensor, Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI), which is onboard South Korean Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite (COMS), was successfully launched in June of 2010. GOCI has a local area coverage of the western Pacific region centered at around 36°N and 130°E and covers ~2500 × 2500 km(2 ...

An evaluation of ocean color model estimates of marine primary productivity in coastal and pelagic regions across the globe [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2011 Nearly half of the earth's photosynthetically fixed carbon derives from the oceans. To determine global and region specific rates, we rely on models that estimate marine net primary productivity (NPP) thus it is essential that these models are evaluated ...
