Kaufman,J. R. Vande Castle,Alberto Setzer,Brian L. Markham,Dennis K. Clark,Robert Frouin,Rangasayi N. Halthore,Rangasayi N. Halthore,A. Karneli,N. T. O'Neill,Christophe Pietras,Christophe Pietras,Rachel T. Pinker,Kenneth J. Voss,Giuseppe Zibordi +27 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the AERONET program of spectral aerosol optical depth, precipitable water, and derived Angstrom exponent were analyzed and compiled into a spectral optical properties climatology.
Journal ArticleDOI
A semianalytic radiance model of ocean color
Howard R. Gordon,Otis B. Brown,Robert Evans,James W. Brown,Raymond C. Smith,Karen S. Baker,Dennis K. Clark +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a semianalytical radiance model is developed which predicts the upwelled spectral radiance at the sea surface as a function of the phytoplankton pigment concentration for Morel Case 1 waters.
Phytoplankton pigment concentrations in the Middle Atlantic Bight - Comparison of ship determinations and CZCS estimates. [Coastal Zone Color Scanner]
TL;DR: In this paper, the processing algorithms used for relating the apparent color of the ocean observed with the Coastal Zone Color Scanner on Nimbus-7 to the concentration of phytoplankton pigments (principally the pigment responsible for photosynthesis, chlorophyll a) are developed and discussed in detail.

Phytoplankton pigment concentrations in the Middle Atlantic Bight: comparison of ship determinations and CZCS estimates
Howard R. Gordon,Dennis K. Clark,James W. Brown,Otis B. Brown,Robert Evans,William W. Broenkow +5 more
TL;DR: The processing algorithms used for relating the apparent color of the ocean observed with the Coastal-Zone Color Scanner on Nimbus-7 to the concentration of phytoplankton pigments are developed and discussed in detail and suggest the error in the retrieved pigment concentration is of the order of 30-40% for a variety of atmospheric turbidities.
Journal ArticleDOI
An overview of MODIS capabilities for ocean science observations
Wayne E. Esaias,Mark R. Abbott,I. J. Barton,Otis B. Brown,J.W. Campbell,Kendall L. Carder,Dennis K. Clark,Robert Evans,Frank E. Hoge,Howard R. Gordon,William M. Balch,Ricardo M. Letelier,Peter J. Minnett +12 more
TL;DR: The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer will add a significant new capability for investigating the 70% of the Earth's surface that is covered by oceans, in addition to contributing to the continuation of a decadal scale time series necessary for climate change assessment in the oceans.
