| Summary: | The quantification of uncertainties affecting satellite ocean color products is a fundamental step to ensure their compliance with mission and science requirements. This work investigated a methodology relying on the use of in situ radiometric data with known uncertainties to determine those affecting matching satellite data. By exploiting in situ radiometric data from the Ocean Color component of the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET-OC), an advanced method was applied to radiometric data products from the Ocean and Land Color Instruments onboard the Sentinel-3A satellite (OLCI-A) and the Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite onboard the Suomi National-Polar Orbiting Partnership satellite (VIIRS-S). The results from the analysis support the relevance of the method proposed JRC.D.2 - Water and Marine Resources |
