Abstract

    Since 2021, two autonomous HYPERNETS (A new hyperspectral radiometer integrated in automated networks of water and land bidirectional reflectance measurements for satellite validation) stations are operated in contrasted French coastal waters: one in the center of an optically complex coastal lagoon and one at the mouth of a highly turbid estuary. These stations perform predefined sequences of above-water hyperspectral radiometric measurements following a strict viewing geometry. The data recorded by the ®HYPSTAR radiometer is automatically transmitted to servers for quality-controls then computation of the water-leaving reflectance signal. Numerous matchups were identified with high (Sentinel2-MSI and Landsat8/9-OLI) and medium (Sentinel3-OLCI and Aqua-MODIS) spatial resolution satellite data and are analyzed to assess the performance of different atmospheric correction algorithms (Sen2Cor, ACOLITE, POLYMER, iCOR, C2RCC, GRS, BPAC, NIR-SWIR). Considering the specifications of each site (i.e., spatial and temporal variations of water optical properties), optimized matchup protocols are first established to guaranty high quality comparisons between satellite products and field measurements. The matchup results highlight the failure and limits of several atmospheric correction algorithms in complex/turbid coastal waters. The importance of accurate sun glint corrections in low to moderately-turbid waters (with the good performances of POLYMER, C2RCC and GRS processors, e.g., errors (MAPE) lower than 25% in the green spectral region) is also shown while the use of dark targets and spectral fitting to estimate the aerosol contributions is proved to be the most accurate method in the case of turbid waters (with Sen2Cor and ACOLITE errors (MAPE) lower than 20% in the visible and near-infrared spectral regions).
