    • Status and plans for satellite ocean-colour missions: considerations for complementary missions. 

      Yoder, James A.; IOCCG (International Ocean Colour Coordinating Group (IOCCG), Dartmouth, NS, Canada, 1999)
      This report explains the utility of ocean colour data, summarizes technical requirements for global-scale, operational and scientific remote sensing of ocean colour in both Case 1 (open-ocean) and Case 2 (coastal) waters ...

    • Synergy between Ocean Colour and Biogeochemical/ Ecosystem Models. 

      Dutkiewicz, Stephanie; IOCCG (International Ocean Colour Coordinating Group (IOCCG), Dartmouth, NS, Canada, 2020)
      The goal of this report is to improve the communication between numerical modellers and the ocean colour community. It provides non-expert accessible information about both ocean colour and biogeochemical and ecosystem ...

    • Uncertainties in Ocean Colour Remote Sensing 

      Mélin, Frédéric; IOCCG (International Ocean Colour Coordinating Group (IOCCG), Dartmouth, NS, Canada, 2019)
      This report on "Uncertainties in Ocean Colour Remote Sensing" summarizes the state of the knowledge on uncertainties related to ocean colour (OC) products and identifies ideas and recommendations to achieve significant ...

    • Why Ocean Colour? The Societal Benefits of Ocean-Colour Technology. 

      IOCCG (International Ocean Colour Coordinating Group (IOCCG), Dartmouth, NS, Canada, 2008)
      The concentration of chlorophyll in the ocean (or in fresh water) is an index of phytoplankton biomass, and is an important property that can be monitored through ocean colour radiometry (OCR) by Earth-orbiting spacecraft. ...
