POSTER Session 3

PRESENT STATUS AND RESULTS OF THE MARINE OPTICAL BUOY (MOBY) REFRESH AND MARONET

The Hawaii Marine Optical Buoy (MOBY) has provided the primary vicarious calibration data for many ocean color satellite systems over the last 25 years. We have been working on replacing the MOBY system, with a goal of improving the operation of the system, in a NOAA supported process we are calling MOBY-Refresh. In addition, with the support of NASA we have developed MarONet, which takes many of the features of the NOAA MOBY-Refresh effort and adds additional components to allow deployment of the MarONet system off of Perth, Australia. We have recently deployed these two instruments, Refresh in Hawaii and MarONet in Australia. Results from these deployments will be presented.
