MERIS 3rd Reprocessing
Abstract
MERIS is a Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer operating in the reflective solar spectral range on board the ENVISAT platform. MERIS has been on orbit since 2002 and it has been providing a continuous global record of ocean colour, as well as land and atmospheric observations. MERIS data are now undergoing the third major reprocessing. This paper describes the major changes in instrument calibration and algorithms and explains their impact on the stability and accuracy of MERIS time series.
