Zusammenfassung:The Ocean Color—Simultaneous Marine and Aerosol Retrieval Tool (OC-SMART) is a robust data processing platform utilizing scientific machine learning (SciML) in conjunction with comprehensive radiative transfer computations to provide accurate remote sensing reflectances (Rrs estimates), aerosol optical depths, and inherent optical properties. This paper expands the capability of OC-SMART by quantifying uncertainties in ocean color retrievals. Bayesian inversion is used to relate measured top of atmosphere radiances and a priori data to estimate posterior probability density functions and associated uncertainties. A framework of the methodology and implementation strategy is presented and uncertainty estimates for Rrs retrievals are provided to demonstrate the approach by applying it to MODIS, OLCI Sentinel-3, and VIIRS sensor data.
