Intercomparison of Ocean Color Algorithms for Picophytoplankton Carbon in the Ocean

Intercomparison of Ocean Color Algorithms for Picophytoplankton Carbon in the Ocean

The differences among phytoplankton carbon (Cphy) predictions from six ocean color algorithms are investigated by comparison with in situ estimates of phytoplankton carbon. The common satellite data used as input for the algorithms is the Ocean Color Climate Change Initiative merged product. The mat...
