Description

This project establishes the California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations (CalCOFI), hosted at Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), as a PACE validation program. Project Objectives are to: 1) collect a broad suite of biogeochemical and biological measurements on CalCOFI cruises for future use in developing, refining, and assessing advanced NASA data products; 2) co-locate in situ hyper- and multi-spectral measurements with the required validation measurement suite from CalCOFI stations; 3) Validate performance of in situ radiometry from the PACE observatory.
