The Ocean Color and Temperature Scanner in Antarctica, 1996-1997
Ocean Color and Temperature Scanner (OCTS) is an optical radiometer to achieve highly sensitive spectral measurement with 12 bands covering visible and thermal infrared region. In the visible and near-infrared bands, the ocean conditions are observed by taking advantage of spectral reflectance of the dissolved substances in the water and phytoplankton. OCTS mainly serves as an observation sensor of the ocean conditions, including chlorophyll and dissolved substances in the water, temperature profile and cloud formation processes.
