In-water algorithms for ADEOS/OCTS

AbstractIn-water algorithms for OCTS standard products were developed using in situ data and installed for operationally processing at NASDA/EOC. This paper describes the in-water algorithms Version 1.0 for chlorophylla concentration, pigment concentration, and attenuation coefficient at a wavelength of 490 nm. The selected OCTS standard algorithms (Ver. 1.0) are as follows: $$Chl = 0.2818 \left( {\frac{{L4 + L5}}{{L3}}} \right)^{3.497 } $$ $$Pig = 1.568 \left( {\frac{{L2}}{{L4}}} \right)^{ - 2.079 } \left( {\frac{{L3}}{{L4}}} \right)^{ - 3.498 } $$ $$K 490 = 0.0391 \left( {\frac{{L4 + L5}}{{L2}}} \right)^{1.691 } $$
