“…In the past, methods for removing the intermission difference have focused on the intermission consistency of chlorophyll-a concentration (Gregg et al, 2009;Kahru et al, 2015;Mélin et al, 2017;Pottier et al, 2006;Saulquin et al, 2013). One of these methods is the empirical gain factor cross-calibration approach, which reduces the deviation between two measurements (Eplee et al, 2011;Mélin et al, 2017;Quan, 2014;Teillet et al, 2007). The empirical gain factor approach is similar to the empirical satellite-to-satellite approach that Kahru et al (2015) proposed.…”
