Validation of Ocean Surface Downwelling Irradiance and Its Underwater Propagation for the PACE Mission
Description
This project contributes to the validation of global surface radiation products and diffuse attenuation coefficients (Kd) generated by the PACE mission, essential for quantifying net primary production. The radiation products include instantaneous, daily mean, planar, and scalar fluxes products, in particular daily mean photosynthetically available radiation (PAR). In-situ observations are gathered through a network of automatic stations measuring hyperspectral downward planar irradiance (Ed(0+)) at selected AERONET-OC sites, and BGC-Argo profilers equipped with hyperspectral Ed sensors. BGC-Argo data were collected and made freely available by the International Argo Program and the national programs that contribute to it (https://argo.ucsd.edu, https://www.ocean-ops.org). The Argo Program is part of the Global Ocean Observing System https://doi.org/10.17882/42182. Link to BGC-Argo GDAC for raw float data: https://data-argo.ifremer.fr/aux/coriolis/.
