| Description |
The products for (optically) complex waters comprise chlorophyll-a concentration (CHL_NN), total suspended matter (TSM_NN) and absorption from Gelbstoff and Detritus (ADG443_NN), each with an associated error product. These products are derived from top-of-atmosphere radiance using the so_x0002_called Alternative Atmospheric Correction (AAC) which is coupled with the retrieval of the water products. Both, the AAC and the retrieval of water IOPs are performed by neural networks, based on a consistent set of water leaving and top-of-atmosphere reflectances. The concentrations are derived by empirical relationships between the IOPs and the concentrations. |
