1. Inter-comparison of atmospheric correction over moderately to very turbid waters Cédric Jamet Kick-off meeting Wimereux, France May, 14, 2014

2. Rationale 15 years of continuous ocean satellite data: –~13 years for SeaWiFS –~10 years for MERIS –~10 years of MODIS-AQUA (and still counting) –VIIRS (2012-) –OLCI (2015-) –GOCI (2010- )  Possibility to study inter-annual and decennal variability of biogeochemical parameters in open but also in coastal waters

3. Rationale Need for accurate atmospheric correction algorithms  Need to look at the existing algorithms Several AC developed for the past 12 years  no assessment of differences Future ocean color sensors: high spatial resolution, high radiometric resolution, other wavelengths  Highest possibility to study coastal waters Need for guidances on using the already developed AC (see number of requests on the forum of oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov)

18. Conclusions (2/3) Sensitivity tests on assumptions of each algorithm –Ruddick: High impact of a bias of the value of the aerosol ratio ε –Stumpf R2009: Low impact of the new aerosol models for nLw; Moderate to High impact of the new definition of b b (670) –Kuchinke: High impact of the Junge aerosol models; “high impact” of the bio-optical parameters in GSM  need to tune the bio-optical models

19. Conclusions (3/3) Time processing: –Standard algorithm: fastest algorithm –Kuchinke: very time consuming (as any optimization technique) –Ruddick: twice slower than standard algorithm (need to process two times the same image)

43. Conclusions Several methods exist today  Difficult to estimate which one is the best All methods have advantages and limitations Not sure accuracy is reached for short visible wavelengths Still work to do or the actual accuracy is enough for bio- optical applications???

44. My participation Chairman: –Management of the WG –Editor of the report –Organizer of annual and teleconf meetings Processing datasets with Goyens et al. (2014) AC Collection of in-situ datasets Full analysis of the outputs of the AC –Match-ups –Transects –Sensitivities studies –Time series

45. Your participation Developers provide their algorithm (+ process datasets) How do you want to participate? –K. Stamnes: algorithm + RT model for atmosphere –X. He: algorithm + RT model for atmosphere –S. Sterckx: adjacency effects comparison + extreme turbid waters in-situ dataset –P. Shanmugam: algorithm + in-situ dataset in Indian Ocean –J.

Schroeder: algorithm + in-situ datasets around Australia –M. Wang: experience from report #10 + algorithms

46. Why a new IOCCG WG? Complement of the IOCCG report #10: « Atmospheric Correction for Remotely-Sensed Ocean-Colour Products » (Wang, 2010)  Update (could also be an update of IOCCG report #3) This WG focused mainly on open ocean waters And in coastal waters?? Need for guidances on using the already developed AC  Purpose of this new WG

47. Summary Goal: Inter-comparison and evaluation of existing AC algorithms over turbid/coastal waters  Understanding retrievals differences between algorithms Challenge: to understand the advantages and limitations of each algorithm and their performance under certain atmospheric and oceanic conditions Only focus on AC algorithms that deal with a non-zero NIR water-leaving radiances. High demand for AC guidelines Outputs timely  Guidances on the use of AC over turbid waters  Recommendations for improving and selecting the optimal AC Not a sensor-oriented exercise

48. Questions How well do the aerosols need to be retrieved? Does the technique matter? How good is the extrapolation from SWIR to NIR to VIS? How to improve AC with the historic wavelengths? –Better bio-optical models –New contrains (such as relationships between Rrs, cf Poster of Goyens et al.) –Regional AC? Do we really need extra wavelengths in NIR/SWIR? What info can offer the future satellite sensors?

49. Evaluation of AC Can round robin lead to improvements? –What can we learn? Range of validity and advantages Limitations –Sensitivity studies Fixed aerosols  Variation/change of the bio-optical model Fixed bio-optical model  Variation/change of the aerosol models –Uncertainties propagation and budget on the hypothesis Ruddick et al.
