“On a global scale, marine phytoplankton consume fifty thousand million tones of carbon every year in a process referred to as primary production.” -- IOCCG Report #2
“One of the principal applications of satellite ocean color data is to derive net primary production (NPP).” --- McClain (Annu. Rev. Mar. Sci., 2009)
food chain; carbon cycle
1. Estimate global primary production (PP)
Why chlorophyll concentration?
Elements of photosynthesis:
CO2 + H2O + phytoplankton + light + nutrient chemical energy
Components for PP quantification:
(Platt and Sathyendranath, 2007)
1. Phytoplankton 2. Light penetration
3. Photosynthesis parameters
[chl]
Traditional strategy: [chl] centered system
Works for waters where IOPs co-vary with [Chl].

Why aph based approach is likely better?
(Szeto et al 2011, JGR)
The change of Rrs ratio really reflects change of total absorption!

(Carder et al, 1999, JGR)
To accurately retrieve spatially and temporally varying Chl from Rrs, we need:
1. Remove the influence of detritus/CDOM and particles 2. Take into account the spatial/temporal variation of a*ph
A promising effort:
Brief summary about current satellite Chl product: • The map of Rrs ratio represents a map of total absorption coefficient. • The GSM-derived Chl represents more of phytoplankton absorption coefficient.
pb:
(Platt et al 2008, RSE)
Pb is also dependent on a*ph,
which is not a constant either for a given Chl nor for varying Chl!

Key Points:
1. Many applications traditionally built around [Chl] can be built around IOPs.
2. Remote sensing and applications centered around IOPs avoided, when necessary, concentration-normalized optical properties.
3. With IOPs as inputs, many products, e.g. Kd, Zeu, PP, could be estimated easily and more accurately.
4. When IOPs are known, many other applications could
be carried out. Be creative!!!
