3 Menghua Wang, NOAA/NESDIS/ORA Atmospheric Correction   w is the desired quantity in ocean color remote sensing.  T  g is the sun glint contribution—avoided/masked/corrected.  T  wc is the whitecap reflectance—computed from wind speed.   r is the scattering from molecules—computed using the Rayleigh lookup tables (atmospheric pressure dependence).   A =  a +  ra is the aerosol and Rayleigh-aerosol contributions —estimated using aerosol models.  For Case-1 waters at the open ocean,  w is usually negligible at 750 & 865 nm.  A can be estimated using these two NIR bands. Ocean is usually not black at NIR for the coastal regions. Gordon, H. R. and M. Wang, “Retrieval of water-leaving radiance and aerosol optical thickness over the oceans with SeaWiFS: A preliminary algorithm,” Appl. Opt., 33, 443-452, 1994. MODIS and SeaWiFS algorithm (Gordon and Wang 1994)

4 Menghua Wang, NOAA/NESDIS/ORA Atmospheric Correction: Longer NIR  In general, to effect the atmospheric correction operationally using the NIR bands at 748 and 869 nm, or using the spectral optimization with measurements from 412-865nm, Case-2 bio- optical model that has strongly regional dependence is needed.  At the longer NIR wavelengths (>~1000 nm), ocean water is much strongly absorbing and ocean contributions are significant less. Thus, atmospheric correction may be carried out at the coastal regions without using the bio-optical model.  Examples using the MODIS Aqua 1240 and 2130 nm data to derive the ocean color products.  We use the longer NIR (2130 nm) for the cloud masking. This is necessary for the coastal region waters.

10 Menghua Wang, NOAA/NESDIS/ORA Data Processing Using the SWIR Bands Software Modifications:  Atmospheric correction package has been significantly modified based on SeaDAS 4.6.  Data structure and format of aerosol lookup tables and diffuse transmittance tables have been changed.  With these changes, it is flexible now to run with different aerosol models (e.g., absorbing aerosols) and with various band combinations for atmospheric correction. Lookup Tables Generation and Implementation:  Rayleigh lookup tables for the SWIR bands (for all MODIS 16 bands).  Aerosol optical property data (scattering phase function, single scattering albedo, extinction coefficients) for the SWIR bands (12 models).  Aerosol radiance lookup tables (12 aerosol models) for the SWIR bands. Table structures are completely changed (different from the current ones). Data Processing:  Regenerated MODIS L1B data including all SWIR band data (for SeaDAS).  Developed cloud masking using the MODIS 1240/1640/2130 nm band.  For MODIS Aqua, atmospheric correction can be operated using 1240/2130 bands, 869/1240 bands, and 869/2130 bands.  Current 8 bands: 412, 443, 488, 531, 551, 869, 1240, and 2130 nm.

36 Menghua Wang, NOAA/NESDIS/ORA Conclusions  It works!  For the turbid waters in coastal regions, ocean is not black at the NIR bands. This leads to underestimation of the sensor-measured water-leaving radiances with current SeaWiFS/MODIS atmospheric correction algorithm.  Ocean is black for turbid waters at wavelengths >~1000 nm, e.g., 1240 and 2130 nm. Thus, the longer NIR bands can be used for atmospheric correction over the turbid waters. No ocean model is needed!  Future ocean color sensor needs to include wavelengths > ~1000 nm with high SNR values.
