At each cruise four stations were visited, where one of the stations was optimised to coincide with a MERIS overpass. Cloud-free sky conditions were realized during two cruises in April and September. For the cruise of 2 September 2002 a level-2 MERIS image was received and the geophysical products were compared with the in situ measured parameters. Two stations were measured within 1 hour of the MERIS overpass (1 and 50 minutes difference). The reflectance and suspended sediment concentration retrieved from the MERIS image were reasonably consistent with in situ observations. The MERIS algal pigment 2 was significantly higher and the yellow substance absorption was significantly lower than the in situ observations. Only two match-up pixels are presented in this paper, so no statistically sound conclusive remarks can be made about the validatio...

The used TSM algorithm provides reliable results for this case II water, which is dominated by sediment from various sources. However, the algorithm tends to seriously overestimate TSM concentrations in

For the 2 matchup locations presented in 2002, a comparison is made for the atmospheric correction before and after the changes in atmospheric correction. Furthermore the influence of the case2_S flag on the MERIS level 2 water products was investigated. First, it was found that the reflectance from the new '0308' processing was significantly lower than the 'original' processing. This effect is most pronounced in the blue, where the difference is approximately 0.005. The 'original' reflectance spectrum compares best to the measured in situ reflectance spectrum. Second, the number of matchup locations sampled by our institute increased to a number of 7 due to continued participation in cruises in 2003. Disappointingly, validation of concentrations of chlor...
