Atmospheric correction of OLCI imagery over extremely turbid waters based on the red, NIR and 1016 nm bands and a new baseline residual technique
A common approach to the pixel-by-pixel atmospheric correction of satellite water colour imagery is to calculate aerosol and water reflectance at two spectral bands, typically in the near infra-red (NIR, 700-1000 nm) or the short-wave-infra-red (SWIR, 1000-3000 nm), and then extrapolate aerosol refl...

A common approach to the pixel-by-pixel atmospheric correction of satellite water colour imagery is to calculate aerosol and water reflectance at two spectral bands, typically in the near infra-red (NIR, 700-1000 nm) or the short-wave-infra-red (SWIR, 1000-3000 nm), and then extrapolate aerosol reflectance to shorter wavelengths.

For moderately turbid waters, either the NIR water reflectance, which is non-negligible, must be modelled or longer wavelength SWIR bands, with negligible water reflectance, must be used. For extremely turbid waters, modelling of non-zero NIR water reflectance becomes uncertain because the spectral slopes of water and aerosol reflectance in the NIR become similar, making it difficult to distinguish between them.
