Remote Sensing Reflectance Closure
Study Site• LEO-15 site on the New Jersey continental shelf
• New York Bight and Middle Atlantic Bight
• Waters less than 25 m deep
• Physics characterized by upwelling, small-scale eddies, riverine and estuarine inputs, fronts, coastal jets, tides, etc.
• Optics characterized by phytoplankton blooms, turbidity fronts, terrestrial CDOM, bottom resuspension, etc.
ProblemsRemote sensing• Atmospheric corrections, clouds
• Extrapolation of region-specific to global ocean color algorithms
• Determination of water column vertical structure
In situ measurements• Measurements of Lu(z) rather than the
desired Lw(0+)
• Surface roughness effects (Toole et al., 2000)
• Self-shading (Leathers et al., 2000)
• Surface biological effects (Cullen and Lewis, 1995)
• Scattering phase functions (Mobley et al., 2002)
• Raman scattering (Gordon, 1999)
Introduction• Spectral radiance is one of the fundamental quantities of interest in the field of ocean optics (Kirk, 1989; Mobley, 1994).
• Radiance, L(,z), is defined as the radiant flux at a specified point with units of W (or quanta s-1) m-2 sr-1 nm-1.
• The spectral shape and magnitude of radiance is dependent on the influx of solar radiation at the sea surface and the optical properties of the water column.
• Upwelling radiance, Lu(,, z), is the
radiance of an upwelling light field.
Importance• Quantifying ocean color/remote sensing
(Lw(0+) is water-leaving radiance and
Ed(0+) is solar spectral irradiance)
• Chlorophyll concentration (O’Reilly et al., 1998)• Spectral backscattering coefficient• Spectral absorption coefficient• Subsurface features (Barnard et al., 2000)• Bottom type• Bathymetry
• Water column visibility
• Photosynthesis

Conclusions• Average Statistics
Lu,0.66m) TSRB and Hydrolight
Lw(,0+m)
Lu(,0.66m) Suitcase and Hydrolight
Lw(,0+m)
• Differences in Lw(,0+m) due to n-squared law of transmittance
• Differences in blue wavelengths attributed to: - Scattering correction for absorption - Errors in VSF measurements (prototype instrument)
• Differences in red wavelengths attributed to: - Use of default chlorophyll-specific absorption coefficient in Hydrolight modeling
• Spectral shape of L(,z) changes from nearshore to offshore due to changes in water type.
