The Black Sea receives drainage from almost one-third of continental Europe (five times its own surface) that includes significant portions of 17 countries, 13 capital cities, and some 160 million people. However, biogeochemical variables are generally derived from data acquired in the visible range of the spectrum, and thus they are hampered by the presence of clouds, a significant issue in a basin that has a 40-50% of average cloud coverage. At some especially strong river discharges (such as the Danube plume), there is a strong correlation between Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) and the Colored Detrital Organic Matter (CDM) to the point that one can be considered as a proxy for the other, at least over the area most influenced by the river discharge. This connection is caused by the capability of SSS to track the proportion of freshwater contributed by the river. As far as the proportion of sedimentary material contributed by the river is approximately constant, some biogeochemical variables associated with primary productivity will strongly correlate with the amount of river water being mixed in the sea basin and thus with SSS. In the framework of the ESA EO4SIBS (Earth Observation data for Science and Innovation in the Black Sea) project, we used this connection to derive a new CDM product in the Black Sea generated from SMOS SSS measurements. Despite its limited resolution (we use L4 SMOS SSS with spatial resolution grid of 0.05x0.05º), this new SMOS-derived product provides CDM information over all-weather conditions. Here we present the methods and the assessment of the performance of this new experimental product in comparison with the available CDM products in the Black Sea Peer reviewed 2023-07-27T11:29:52Z 2023-07-27T11:29:52Z 2022-05-23 comunicación de congreso Living Planet Symposium (2022) http://hdl.handle.net/10261/331989 en Sí none European Space Agency |
