BGC-Argo radiometry matchups with L2 satellite images from MODIS, VIIRS and OLCI sensors
<p> Diffuse attenuation coefficients(Kd) were computed from measured downwelling irradiance measurements from BGC-Argo floats. Matchups between satellite images and float profiles were then performed. Estimates of Kd at two different wavelengths and<br> band-integrated (PAR) were obtained from Remote Sensing Reflectance using different published algorithms developed for open ocean waters spanning in type from explicit-empirical, semi-analytical and implicit-empirical and applied to data from spectral radiometers on board six different satellites (MODIS-Aqua, MODIS-Terra, VIIRS–SNPP, VIIRS-JPSS, OLCI-Sentinel 3A and OLCI-Sentinel 3B).</p>
