Evaluation of sea-surface photosynthetically available radiation algorithms under various sky conditions and solar elevations

In this study, we report on the performance of satellite-based photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) algorithms used in published oceanic primary production models. The performance of these algorithms was evaluated using buoy observations under clear and cloudy skies, and for the particular c...
