Problem of quantitative interpretation of the Black Sea observations provided by the SeaWiFS and MODIS satellite instruments is considered in the terms of spectral dependencies of the seawater optically active components. For this purpose, the results of standard data (accumulated in the NASA archive) processed by the GIOP (Generalized ocean color inversion model for retrieving marine Inherent Optical Properties) complex method are analyzed. As these results often contain significant distortions
