(2008): 203.2*Rrs(443)/Rrs(555)^-1.034. The Rrs at 443 and 555 nm were obtained from the European Space Agency (ESA) Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative version 4.2 dataset (OC-CCI v4.2) (Sathyendranath et al., 2020). The bias and root-mean-square-difference of log_10  transformed POC data in each pixel were computed by weighting the uncertainties in each CCI optical water class by their membership (Brewin et al., 2017; Jackson et al., 2017).
