OCEAN COLOR DATA MERGING AT UCSB A BRIEF HISTORY : NASA SIMBIOS Program Develop merging procedures Test them with SeaWiFS and MODIS : NASA Research, Education, and Applications Solution Network (REASoN) Develop an Ocean Color Time-series Develop and distribute merged data sets from SeaWiFS and MODIS: Chl and other products : ESA GlobCOLOUR Project GSM merging procedure is one of the methods tested.

Why do ocean color data merging ? Several simultaneous global ocean color missions Several versions of the same product Benefits: Development of unified, consistent ocean color time-series from multiple sensors (ESDRs, CDRs) Improved spatial and temporal coverage More diverse ocean color products with lower uncertainties Difficulties: Sensors are not created equal: different designs, calibrations, algorithms, accuracies,…. Large volumes of data to deal with Merging procedure should not create biases, discontinuities, artifacts,…

THE GSM01 MERGING MODEL (Garver & Siegel, 1997; Maritorena et al., 2002; Maritorena & Siegel, 2005). Non-water components of absorption and scattering are expressed as known shape functions with an unknown magnitudes: a ph ( ) = Chl a ph *( ) a cdm ( ) = a cdm (443) exp(-S( -443)) b bp ( ) = b bp (443) (  /443) -  Fixed parameters were optimized for global applications using a large in situ data set Non-linear least-square technique is used to solve for the unknowns (chl, a cdm (443) and b bp (443)) from L wN ( ) data at 4 or more wavelengths. Uncertainties of the input L wN ( ) can be taken into account. Confidence intervals of the retrievals are estimated GSM01 is a Case I non-polar water model

RESULTS WITH THE NOMAD DATA SET

Merging technique = GSM model (Maritorena & Siegel, 2005) SeaWiFS Aqua Meris Merged 9 km grid (REASoN) 4.6 km grid (GlobCOLOUR) GSM main features: Exploits band differences to extend spectral information Utilizes band redundancies Uncertainties of the input L wN ( ) can be taken into account. Can provide uncertainty estimates for the output products GSM01 forward L wN ( ) QC

GSM Merging Model Coverage map Chl product

Issues with the particulate backscattering product Meris issue Mostly a SeaWiFS issue  Noise in the SeaWiFS and Meris Lwns around gaps caused by clouds. In these areas, the Lwn( ) are sometimes higher than in nearby gap-free areas and this results in enhanced b bp (443) values.  Problem seems much less important in Aqua data  This noise is not uniformly distributed but seems to mostly affect mid-latitudes in the southern hemisphere.  Meris shows some high b bp values on the western edge of some swaths.

SeaWiFS L wN (555) SeaWiFS b bp (443) Noise in the backscattering product with SeaWiFS “Ringing” issue High L wN ( ) values around cloud gaps Can be filtered but will result in loss of coverage Does not happen with Aqua data
