Complete characterization of ocean color radiometers by Viktor Vabson, Ilmar Ansko, Kim Duong, Riho Vendt, Joel Kuusk, Kevin Ruddick, Agnieszka Bialek, Gavin H. Tilstone, Juan Ignacio Gossn, Ewa Kwiatkowska

“…The FRM principles established by the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS) recommend that in situ Ocean Colour radiometers (OCR) have a documented history of SI traceable calibrations including uncertainty budgets. Furthermore, there can be significant differences between calibration and use of the instruments in the field due to differences in operating temperature, angular variation of the light field (especially for irradiance sensors), the intensity of the measured radiation, and spectral variation of the target, among others. …”
