Methodology:
• Baseline: MCST lunar and SD trending (coll. 6)• New MCST lunar analysis: time dependent NIR
RVS• MODIS Aqua crosscalibrated to SeaWiFS (as
for Terra in Kwiatkowska et al., Applied Optics, 2008)
• Approach: Use SeaWiFS L3 nLw, bring to TOA, adjust MODIS cal. and pol., for every month of the mission (4-day L3)
• Verify with analysis using only MODIS Aqua data: temporal trends (seasonal cycle removed) and ratio of L2/L3 versus scan angle

Crosscalibration approach:
Lm = M11*Lt + m12*Q + m13*U
Lm: measured TOA radiance (MODIS)
Lt: true TOA radiance (from SeaWiFS)
Q, U : linear Stokes vector components, modeled from Rayleigh and glint
M11, m12, m13 : fitted instrument characterization parameters (depend on band, MS, detector, scan angle) 9

Crosscalibration results: Polarization (temporal)
- Larger seasonal cycle than in MODIS Terra- No trend in polarization coefficient m12 until 2008, not clear if trend afterwards

Band 8: 412nm
Black, blue, red:detectors 1,5,10, MS 1View angle: nadir

Summary
- Principal changes for MODIS Aqua calibration and characterization:- New temporal NIR scan angle dependence (MCST)- New temporal trends for 412-443nm (xcal)- New scan angle dependence for 488nm-678nm (xcal, no time dependence)- New detector dependence of polarization sensitivity (prelaunch)
- Resulting improvements to ocean color products:- FLH stable over mission in olig.- Rrs 412nm stable over mission, variability reduced for remaining bands- Large scan dependence at EOM removed for 412nm- Minor scan angle dependence removed for 443-547nm- Large scan angle dependence reduced for 667-678nm, but still present at EOM
