Abstract
The absorption coefficient of chromophoric dissolved organic matter at 443 nm, alpha(CDOM)(443), has been retrieved from coastal zone color scanner (CZCS) normalized water-leaving radiances. For a wintertime, l ow-chlorophyll condition in the Middle Atlantic Eight the alpha(CDOM)( 443) is computed by mathematical inversion of an oceanic spectral radi ance model, The CZCS alpha(CDOM)(443) retrieval is validated by a rece nt ship-aircraft alpha(CDOM)(443) retrieval experiment within the same oceanographic region.
