TL;DR: In this article, a new concept of oceanographic data buoy is described, which couples a taut mooring and a transparent-to-swell superstructure, and is specifically designed for the collection of radiometric quantities in offshore environments.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used satellite ocean color observations covering the 1980s and the 2000s to describe seasonal cycles of the North Atlantic phytoplankton chlorophyll-a (Chl) seasonal cycles.

TL;DR: In this article, a methodology is proposed to infer the altitude of aerosol plumes over the ocean from reflectance ratio measurements in the O2 absorption A-band (759 to 770 nm).

TL;DR: In this article, a two-year time-series of chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) light absorption measurements in the upper 400m of the water column at the BOUSSOLE site in the NW Mediterranean Sea was analyzed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors suggest that the creation of ocean color Climate Data Records (CDRs) should ideally rely on one main long-term in situ calibration system (site and radiometry) established and sustained with the objective to maximize accuracy and precision over time of g-factors and thus minimize possible biases among satellite data products from different missions.
