The Ocean Color Quality Assessment Monitor (OC-QA) NRT-QA monitors in near real-time:
Major objectives of OC-QA:
NRT-QA analyses presented here complement the global validation work "L2 - in situ" done at NASA/OBPG for MODIS/SeaWIFS algorithm and products, applied in NRT mode for CoastWatch regions of interest. For VIIRS algorithm development, validation and calibration please refer to the NOAA Ocean Color group's webpages (STAR Ocean Color). The CoastWatch/OceanWatch NRT Ocean color product validation is presented as links here.
Chlorophyll distribution functions are log-normally distributed and hence all statistics is calculated in log-normal space to estimate gaussian statisitical parameters.
