Retrieval of Chlorophyll a from Sentinel-2 MSI Data for the European Union Water Framework Directive Reporting Purposes
摘要： The European Parliament and The Council of the European Union have established the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) for all European Union member states to achieve, at least, 'good' ecological status of all water bodies larger than 50 hectares in Europe. The MultiSpectral Instrument onboard European Space Agency satellite Sentinel-2 has suitable 10, 20, 60 m spatial resolution to monitor most of the Estonian lakes as required by the Water Framework Directive. The study aims to analyze the suitability of Sentinel-2 MultiSpectral Instrument data to monitor water quality in inland waters. This consists of testing various atmospheric correction processors to remove the influence of atmosphere and comparing and developing chlorophyll a algorithms to estimate the ecological status of water in Estonian lakes. This study shows that the Sentinel-2 MultiSpectral Instrument is suitable for estimating chlorophyll a in water bodies and tracking the spatial and temporal dynamics in the lakes. However, atmospheric corrections are sensitive to surrounding land and often fail in narrow and small lakes. Due to that, deriving satellite-based chlorophyll a is not possible in every case, but initial results show the Sentinel-2 MultiSpectral Instrument could still provide complementary information to in situ data to support Water Framework Directive monitoring requirements.

摘要： Sentinel-2 is an Earth Observation optical mission developed and operated by the European Space Agency (ESA) in the frame of the Copernicus program of the European Commission. The mission consists on a MultiSpectral Instruments (MSI) on board a constellation of two satellites flying on the same orbit but phased at 180°: Sentinel-2A launched in June 2015 and Sentinel-2B launched in March 2017. It covers the Earth’s land surfaces and inland and coastal waters every five days at the equator under the same viewing conditions with high spatial resolution and wide field of view. Accurate radiometric calibration is key to the success of the mission; therefore, in-orbit calibration and validation activities are conducted within the Sentinel-2 Mission Performance Centre (MPC), including a consortium of Expert Support Laboratories (ESL). The Database of Imaging Multispectral Instrument and Tool for Radiometric Intercomparison (DIMITRI) is used to perform the vicarious validation of Level-1 products delivered to users. The aims of this validation are 1) to assess the quality of the data product at Level-1, 2) to monitor the evolution of the radiometry of both instruments and 3) to ensure that the products meet the mission requirement accuracy. Three vicarious methods are used, such as Rayleigh scattering, Desert Pseudo-Invariant Calibration Sites (PICS) and Sensor-to-Sensor inter-calibration methods. Although the results indicate good stability and performance of both sensors MSI-A/B, a slight discrepancy between them of ~1% over desert sites could be observed. Slight decrease of band B8A (865 nm) signal over Algeria-3 site has been detected since April 2017. This effect seems to be related to the impact of human and industry activities near the area. Radiometric performances and image quality of Sentinel-2 MSI-A/B level-1C products appear stable and meet the mission requirements.
