Abstract: The Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) mission will launch no earlier than summer 2022. The primary payload is the Ocean Color Instrument (OCI). OCI is a hyperspectral imaging radiometer that will measure top-of-atmosphere radiances from 340nm to 2260nm at approximately 1km spatial resolution. The spectral resolution will be 5nm from 340nm to 890nm to enable the production of innovative ocean color products on a global scale (OCI will provide global coverage every 2 days). There...
