Sentinel-2 Global Surface Reflectance Level-2a Product Generated with Sen2Cor [PDF]
IGARSS 2019 - 2019 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2019 Sen2Cor is a Level-2A processor designed to correct Sentinel-2 Level-1C products from the effects of the atmosphere in order to deliver a Level-2A surface reflectance product. ESA has been using Sen2Cor for systematic Level-2A processing of Sentinel-2 acquisitions over Europe since June 2017. It has since then been successfully integrated into Sentinel-

Evaluation of Sentinel-2A Surface Reflectance Derived Using Sen2Cor in North America
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2018 Surface reflectance can be derived from satellite measurements for the top of atmosphere and provides an important dataset for monitoring land change reliably. In this study, the Sentinel-2A surface reflectance was generated using the Sentinel-2 atmospheric correction (Sen2Cor) processor.

Comparison of Cloud Cover Detection Algorithms on Sentinel–2 Images of the Amazon Tropical Forest
Remote Sensing, 2020 Tropical forests regulate the global water and carbon cycles and also host most of the world’s biodiversity. Despite their importance, they are hard to survey due to their location, extent, and particularly, their cloud coverage.
