“…AERONET-OC is instrumental in satellite ocean colour validation activities through standardized measurements performed at different sites with a single measuring system and protocol, calibrated with an identical reference source and method, and processed with the same code [ 48 , 49 , 50 ]. In recent years, AERONET-OC has also supported the radiometric characterization of Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 for aquatic applications [ 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 ] and, even if for a limited set of bands, we have considered this network very relevant also for PRISMA.…”
