Initiative
Ocean Colour_CCI
ESA's Climate Change Initiative aims at producing stable, long-term satellite-based Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) data products for climate research. The OC-CCI project focuses on Ocean Colour (OC) and creates global time series of spectral remote-sensing reflectance, chlorophyll concentration in water and inherent optical water properties. Basis are European and US American satellite data by ESA, EUMETSAT, NASA and NOAA. The group at Hereon is involved in the project since 2010.
Further information can be found on theOC_CCI website.
