Short summary
In this study, the MERIS (ocean colour sensor from European Space Agency) algorithm for the quantification of chlorophyll a in coastal waters – API2 – is investigated in an area located in the Atlantic off the southwestern Iberian Peninsula. The study demonstrates the importance of regional algorithms for the study area that could complement upcoming standard results of the present Sentinel-3/OLCI space mission.
