8 January 2007 From Missions to Measurements: an Ocean Color Experience

NASA’s Goal To make available the highest quality ocean color (and sst) data to the broadest user community in the most timely and efficient manner possible.

Uses/requires existing expertise and infrastructure - Minimizes expense & start-up time Allows handling of multiple data sets simultaneously - Not limited to mission-specific requirements and objectives Provides flexibility to support discipline science requirements - Products, algorithms, formats, gridding, reprocessings, etc. Facilitates strong link between flight projects & science community Discipline Processing Rationale Distributed Science-led Geophysical Product Generation/Support

MODIS Ocean Processing Reorganization MODIS Ocean Color processing reorganized by NASA HQ to coincide with new MODIS Ocean Science Team selection. -Ocean color to lead the NASA Earth Science Enterprise transition to “discipline processing”, i.e., move from “missions to measurements” processing. Operational ocean color data processing transferred from MODAPS to the Ocean Color Discipline Processing Group on February 1, 2004 with Sea Surface Temperature following in 2005 Data archive/distribution functions transferred from EOSDIS to Discipline group during active life of mission

GSFC Ocean Color Program Background: A Long History of Achievement Nimbus-7 Coastal Zone Color Scanner ( ) Airborne Oceanographic Lidar (mid-1970’s-present) Community Processing & Analysis Software -SEAPAK ( ); SeaDAS (1991- present) Nimbus-7/Coastal Zone Color Scanner Global Reprocessing ( ) MODIS & MODIS Ocean Team (1989-present) SeaWiFS Project (1991-present) Sensor Intercomparison & Merger for Biological & Interdisciplinary Ocean Studies Project (SIMBIOS; ) Ocean Color Climate Data Record (CDR) Development (REASoN-CAN; recent selection) NASA NPP Science Team (VIIRS ocean color, recent selection) Designated as NASA’s Ocean Color Discipline Group and assumed responsibility for MODIS Ocean Color Processing (Feb. 1, 2004), SST (August 2005) and NPP/VIIRS & Aquarius role

MODIS OC Processing Strategy Initial focus on MODIS/Aqua -MODIS/Aqua more stable than MODIS/Terra -MODIS/Aqua more likely to overlap with NPP/VIIRS Initial emphasis on calibration & Lwn’s* -Large seasonal/regional differences between MODIS/(Terra & Aqua) & SeaWiFS Lwn’s Reduced product set until radiometry verified -Simplify processing for radiometry evaluations -Maintain a baseline consistent with SeaWiFS product suite. Expand product suite later with Community input/feedback * Lwn’s = Water-Leaving Radiances

MODIS Ocean Color Parameters Previous OC Parameter Set -Normalized water-leaving radiances (7) -Aerosol optical thickness (865 nm) -Atmospheric correction epsilon -Aerosol model numbers (2) -Clear water aerosol correction epsilon -CZCS pigment concentration -Chlorophyll-a concentration (3) -Total pigment concentration -Chlorophyll fluorescence line height -Chlorophyll fluorescence baseline -Chlorophyll fluorescence efficiency -Total suspended matter -Coccolithophore pigment concentration -Detached coccolithophore concentration -Calcite concentration -Diffuse attenuation at 490 nm -Phycoerythobilin concentration -Phycourobilin concentration -Instantaneous PAR -Instantaneous absorbed radiation for fluorescence -Gelbstoff absorption coefficient at 400 nm -Phytoplankton absorption coefficient at 675 nm -Total absorption coefficients (5) -Primary production (2 at Level-4) Current OC “Baseline” Parameter Set -Normalized water-leaving radiances (6) -Aerosol optical thickness -Atmospheric correction epsilon -Ångström exponent -Chlorophyll-a (1) -Diffuse attenuation coefficient at 490 nm -SST (day/night) -Same masks & flags as OC products -Recently added Chlorophyll fluorescence line height and Calcite concentration

Calibration/Validation Approach Apply same cal/val approach as for SeaWiFS Common processing codes Work sensor calibration issues with MCST -Solar and lunar calibration analysis and products, e.g., calibration tables, response-vs-scan (RVS), sensor polarization. Systematically test algorithms using both SeaWiFS & MODIS for comparison -Polarization, BRDF, glint, cloud masking, etc. -Global time series with regional analyses (clear-water, deep-water, coastal, basin-latitude zones)
