Optical Features of the Black Sea Aerosol and the Sea Water Upper Layer Based on In Situ and Satellite Measurements
Journal: Physical Oceanography
Year: 2016

The article gives the analysis of the quality of reconstructing basic aerosol characteristics (the aerosol optical depth AOD and the ngstrm parameter ) and the water-leaving radiance spectrum (normalized water-leaving radiance nLw) resulted from application of standard atmospheric correction of satellite measurements data on the ascending over the Black Sea radiance obtained by the ocean color scanners MODIS-Aqua/Terra and VIIRS-SNPP. The analysis basis consists of the in situ measurements carri
