2nd MERIS/(A)ATSR User Workshop 22nd to 26th September 2008 ESA/ESRIN Frascati (Rome) Italy Update on validation of MERIS  w ’s at the BOUSSOLE site David Antoine 1, Constant Mazeran 2, Christophe Lerebourg 2, Ludovic Bourg 2, Marc Bouvet 3, Fabrizio D'Ortenzio 1, Samantha Lavender 4, Kathryn Barker 4, Bernard Gentili 1, Vincenzo Vellucci 1 1: Laboratoire d’Océanographie de Villefranche, Villefranche sur mer, France 2: ACRI-st, Sophia Antipolis, France 3: ESA-ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands 4: ARGANS Ltd, Plymouth, UK

2nd MERIS/(A)ATSR User Workshop 22nd to 26th September 2008 ESA/ESRIN Frascati (Rome) Italy A reminder about BOUSSOLE - Scientific objective: IOPs et AOPs documentation and understanding (bio- optics research), short-time changes... - Operational objective: vicarious radiometric calibration of ocean color satellite observations, and validation of the Level-2 geophysical products derived from these observations (e.g., chlorophyll, reflectances...). Motivation, objectives: establishing a long-term time series of optical properties (IOPs and AOPs), with two parallel objectives: Strategy: combination of 3 elements: - A Deep-sea mooring, for continuous collection of data at the surface - Monthly cruises for the buoy servicing and the collection of data complementary to the buoy data - An AERONET coastal station, to provide the necessary aerosol parameters

2nd MERIS/(A)ATSR User Workshop 22nd to 26th September 2008 ESA/ESRIN Frascati (Rome) Italy The BOUSSOLE site in the Ligurian Sea (northwestern Mediterranean)

2nd MERIS/(A)ATSR User Workshop 22nd to 26th September 2008 ESA/ESRIN Frascati (Rome) Italy Waters at BOUSSOLE are permanently Case 1 waters Buoy data Morel & Maritorena, 2001 Upper limit for Case 1 waters Irradiance reflectance at 560 nm as a function of Chl

2nd MERIS/(A)ATSR User Workshop 22nd to 26th September 2008 ESA/ESRIN Frascati (Rome) Italy The BOUSSOLE buoy, “transparent-to-swell” taut mooring

2nd MERIS/(A)ATSR User Workshop 22nd to 26th September 2008 ESA/ESRIN Frascati (Rome) Italy Buoy data are in agreement with more “classical data”, i.e., profiling radiometer’s data Slope is 1 r 2 is 0.98 Bias is reflectance from a free-falling radiometer (Satlantic SPMR) reflectance from the buoy

2nd MERIS/(A)ATSR User Workshop 22nd to 26th September 2008 ESA/ESRIN Frascati (Rome) Italy Status of buoy deployments - 5 years of deployment, with a quasi permanent data collection (September 2003  September 2008) - Over these 5 years (1825 days), we had 1560 days with a buoy at sea. This is a 85% “deployment success”, i.e., nearly operational - Over these 1560 days, 1300 were with data acquisition. This is a 83% “acquisition success”, which is also very satisfactory - Bi-monthly servicing since July of No data from January 15 to June (5 months) - Next rotation is scheduled Jan Evolution towards hyper-spectral measurements has started in June 2008 (350  800 nm, res 2 nm). Nominal set of 7- multispectral data is however preserved for continuity

2nd MERIS/(A)ATSR User Workshop 22nd to 26th September 2008 ESA/ESRIN Frascati (Rome) Italy Matchup procedures Essentially follows: Bailey S.W., and P.J.

2nd MERIS/(A)ATSR User Workshop 22nd to 26th September 2008 ESA/ESRIN Frascati (Rome) Italy Conclusions - The requirements in terms of accuracy of the atmospheric correction are only met at 443 and 490 nm by the SeaWiFS and MODIS-A products. - The MERIS products don’t meet the requirements. - The water-leaving radiance reflectances provided by the three sensors at 412 nm are severely affected by atmospheric correction errors. - The uncertainty is significantly reduced for the “blue-to-green” reflectance ratio. - These results and the matchup statistics are in agreement with the results obtained by two other similar efforts carried out at a coastal site [Zibordi et al., 2006] and globally [Bailey and Werdell, 2006].  Vicarious calibration should be included in the MERIS L2 processing, as it is done for other OC sensors presently in orbit See next presentations
