Validation of MERIS Radiometric Products at the Acqua Alta Oceanographic Tower (AAOT)
MERIS normalized water leaving radiances have been assessed at the Acqua Alta Ocaenographic Tower in the northern Adriatic Sea using in situ data derived from radiometric measurements from autonmous above-water systems. Results indicate a systematic overestimate of the satellite derived normalized water leaving radiance which suggests an underestimate of the atmosheric effects due to an erroneus determination of the type or quantity of aerosol.
