Comparison of SeaWiFS, MODIS-Terra and MODIS-Aqua in the Southern Ocean

The surface chlorophyll-a concentrations measured by SeaWiFS, MODIS-Terra and MODIS-Aqua are compared in the Southern Ocean in summer 2003. The radiometers generally agree within their estimated accuracy. Residual discrepancies could be reduced by regional calibrations of the bio-optical algorithms.
