get_gsm_IOPexpsR Documentation

Get predefined IOP exponents for GSM in specific regions (NWA or NEP only)

Description

Library of existing optimized exponents for the Garver-Siegel-Maritorena algorithm, used on the IOPs chl, adg, and bbp within the absorption and backscattering terms of the algorithm.

Usage

get_gsm_IOPexps(sensor, region, gtype)

Arguments

sensor

String, either "modisaqua", "seawifs", "viirssnpp", or "olci"

region

String, either "nwa", or "nep"

gtype

String, either "gc", "gs", or "gsv2" (see description below)

Details

region="global" for the standard exponents, "nwa" (Northwest Atlantic) or "nep" (Northeast Pacific) for the regionally-tuned exponents used in Clay et al 2019.

gtype="gc" for the exponents that were tuned using the g coefficients that are constant across wavebands, "gs" for those tuned using the spectrally-dependent g coefficients described in Clay et al 2019. "gsv2" refers to the re-optimized coefficients using the R2022.0 reprocessing.

Value

Numeric vector of exponents used on the IOPs in the algorithm, in this order: chl, adg, bbp
