The studies carried out in 2010-2011 on the development of regional algorithms for calculating the concentration of
chlorophyll-a and suspended matter in the South-Eastern Baltic from data of the satellite color scanners have shown
that a large proportion of errors of calculation of these parameters is associated with poor atmospheric correction. This
paper presents results of our attempt to improve the atmospheric correction for the South-Eastern Baltic through the
development of regional algorithms. Based on data from field measurements of the spectral radiance reflectance by a
floating spectroradiometer, the approach to solving the problem of atmospheric correction, previously developed by
specialists of SIO RAS for other seas, was implemented. The possibility of joint use of data from MODIS and MERIS
scanners was tested.
Keywords: South-Eastern Baltic, ocean color sensors MODIS and MERIS, regional algorithms, atmospheric correction, basis functions
