Session Description:
In the thirty five years since the launch of the Color Zone Color Scanner, great strides have been made to interpret remote sensing data and provide a better understanding of ocean biology and biogeochemistry. Next generation instruments and technologies will address user needs for an improved view of the ocean. For example, lidar and hyperspectral ocean color data will allow us to see deeper into the ocean and provide new opportunities to observe the oceans at a resolution not currently possible. Furthermore, polarimetry can improve the characterization of ocean particle compositions and atmospheric corrections for ocean color retrievals. This session aims to explore the most current ocean observing technology and its potential for advancing quantitative ocean biogeochemical propreties. We invite abstracts that focus onexperimental results using the latest observing technologies (in-situ or remote platforms) addressing topics of ocean biology, chemistry, and air-sea interactions.
