Comparison of MODIS and SeaWiFS Chlorophyll Products: Collection 4 Results Janet W. Campbell and Timothy S. Moore University of New Hampshire MODIS Science Team Meeting Greenbelt, Maryland July 23, 2002

The Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) was launched in August It continues to operate and produce ocean color and land color data. Earlier this month, the entire data set was reprocessed for the 4 th time.

Comparison of MODIS and SeaWiFS Chlorophyll Products: Collection 4 Results MODIS Oceans: Collection 4 began June 2, 2002 SeaWiFS: Reprocessing V.4 as of July 9, 2002

MODIS Chlorophylls: Chlor_MODIS (MOD19: Dennis Clark) Chlor_a_2 (MOD21:Janet Campbell) Chlor_a_3 (MOD21: Ken Carder) SeaWiFS Chlorophyll: OC4.v4 John E. O’Reilly (NASA TM , Vol. 11)

Why so many MODIS chlorophylls? What’s the difference? Originally there were 2 algorithms: “Case 1” waters:Chlor_MODIS (Clark) This is an empirical algorithm based on a statistical regression between chlorophyll and radiance ratios. “Case 2” waters:Chlor_a_3 (Carder) This is a semi-analytic (model-based) inversion algorithm. This approach is required in optically complex “case 2” (coastal) waters.

Chlor_MODIS December 2000 (Collection 3) This algorithm was based on regression involving HPLC chlorophyll(s). n=93, r 2 =0.915, std error of estimate =

Chlor_MODIS (Dennis Clark): December 2000 Collection 3: Based on 443 to 551 band ratio… analogous to CZCS algorithm. Collection 4: Based on ratio to 551.

Chlor_a_3 December 2000 (Collection 3) This “semi-analytic” algorithm accounts for pigment packaging effects in nutrient-replete and nutrient-deplete conditions.

Chlor_a_3 (Ken Carder): December 2000 Collection 3: Used Reynolds SST to determine nutrient deplete/replete status Collection 4: Uses MODIS SST (daytime  m) to determine nutrient deplete/replete status.

More recently a 3 rd algorithm was added: “SeaWiFS-analog” Chlor_a_2 (Campbell) This is an empirical algorithm using the 443:551 and 488:551 band ratios whichever is greater. SeaWiFS algorithmOC4.v4 (O’Reilly) This is an empirical algorithm using the 443:555, 490:555 and 510:555 band ratios whichever is greater.

Chlor_a_2 December 2000 (Collection 3) This “SeaWiFS analog” algorithm is based on the same data set used to parameterize the SeaWiFS algorithm.

Chlor_a_2 (“SeaWiFS analog”): December 2000 Collection 3: Used OC3M algorithm developed by Jay O’Reilly et al. Collection 4: Uses the same OC3M algorithm applied to reprocessed radiances.

The Chlor_a_2 algorithm was proposed by the developers of the OC4.v4 SeaWiFS algorithm. It was called OC3M (3 band, M for MODIS)

Global 36 km Chlor_MODIS Chlor_a2 Chlor_a3 Product forRMSBiasRMSBiasRMSBias Dec Dec. 2-9, Jun. 2-9, Jun. 2, Dec. 4, Apr. 8, Comparisons of Global 36-km MODIS Chlorophyll with SeaWiFS Note: Units are decades of log. Bias is average difference of MODIS minus SeaWiFS; RMS is root-mean-square difference.

CONCLUSIONS (as of December 2001) MODIS and SeaWiFS chlorophylls agree reasonably well. RMS ~ 0.2 log units RMS ~ 0.3 log units when comparing MODIS or SeaWiFS with in-situ chlorophyll measurements. The differences can be explained in terms of pigment packaging (Chlor_a_3 vs. SeaWiFS), or surface layer drift (e.g. Liu et al. 2001). The Chlor_a_2 product is ready to be validated after the next reprocessing. By definition, if it is compatible with SeaWiFS, then it is valid.

CONCLUSIONS (Today) MODIS and SeaWiFS chlorophylls agree reasonably well. RMS ~ 0.2 log units RMS ~ 0.3 log units when comparing MODIS or SeaWiFS with in-situ chlorophyll measurements. The differences can be explained in terms of pigment packaging (Chlor_a_3 vs. SeaWiFS), or surface layer drift (e.g. Liu et al. 2001). The Collection 4 Chlor_a_2 product is now validated, since it is consistent with SeaWiFS.

Can the high-resolution MODIS bands be used to develop a chlorophyll algorithm with improved resolution in coastal waters? Chlor_a_2 algorithm uses: 3 bands at 1 km: 443, 488, 551 nm High resolution bands are: 2 bands at 250 m: 645, 860 nm 5 bands at 500 m: 469, 555, 1240, 1640, 2130 nm

The Chlor_a_2 algorithm uses the ratio of 443 to 551 or 488 to 551 whichever is greater

In a Level-2 granule from the Northern Gulf of Mexico, we regressed: Chlor_a_2 versus 469:555 ratio and Chlor_a_3 versus 469:555 ratio where the radiance ratio was based on 500-m bands (MOD09 Surface Reflectance Product) degraded to 1 km and co-registered with the ocean color data.
