A Network for Marine Optics Measurements in Turbid Waters

TURBINET is a network to establish long-term collaboration and data-sharing by establishing harmonized measurement protocols and data quality for ocean colour satellite data validation activities

 

The main objectives of the project are:
  • To test the generality/regionality of algorithms to estimate suspended particulate matter from satellite data of turbid waters
  • To uniformise the quality control of multi-site in situ data for validation of ocean colour remote sensors
  • To achieve long-term sustainability of these activities by adoption of agreed measurement protocols and a joint measurement database
  • To prepare long-term expansion of these activities to other partners/regions based on the core methodologies developed within TURBINET
