Re: Ocean Color Browser not showing Sentinel images

Yes, the EFR data are available (as of this writing, through 16 July 2023).
Select the EFR checkbox for the desired sensor, select the TC option and click the 'Reconfigure page' button and you should see the available data.

Re: Ocean Color Browser not showing Sentinel images

You can also select the TC (true color) images, and the current browser will display the available OLCI data.

Re: Missing Data SST 8-DAY

Based on the information you provided, I believe you are looking at the bin file (L3b). The bin file is not a raster image format (as the mapped - L3m - product is), rather is is more akin to a spreadsheet. It only contains values where there are data. The bin file format is described here: https://...

Re: Seadas software

Yves, While it is true that we produce and distribute remote sensing reflectance data for MODIS that include the higher spatial resolution bands (469nm, 555, and 645nm), none of the ocean color products we produce use bands other than the nominal 1km spatial resolution ("ocean") bands. For...

Re: Kd-490 scale factor

For efficient storage. A 16bit integer takes less space to store than a 32bit float.

Question: Ocean color chlorophyll-a unit

Re: Ocean color chlorophyll-a unit

The measurement of chlorophyll concentration is indeed a volumetric measurement, thus the units of milligrams per cubic meter. The algorithm employed can relate the observed surface reflectance spectrum to a chlorophyll concentration as it was developed using coincident in situ measurements of remot...

Re: Processing Landsat 8 images with L2gen

You seem to be attempting to process a L2 file. This will not work, as l2gen expects a L1 file as input.

Re: l2gen algorithm - source code error

Fabio, When the Hu algorithm is above 0.25 mg m^-3, but below 0.35 mg m^-3, we blend Hu with OCx. As Lachlan pointed out: The decision point in the function chl_oci that selects chl_hu, chl_ocx, or a blend of the two, is dependent only the magnitude of chl_hu (i.e., chl1). The code is correct. Sean
