The method is based on the knowledge that 80% of the variability in the shape of the aph normalized by its spectral mean from 400 – [...] SynsenPFT. The advantage of the second method is that the relationship can be applied to OC-PFT grid cells even in the absence of PhytoDOAS data, increasing the spatial coverage of the SynsenPFT. Sy-4SciPFT-RB-D1 [...] will adapt the parameterisation relating the fit factor of the specific phytoplankton absorption spectrum divided by the penetration depth with the "real" Chla of the phytoplankton type.

quence of the dependency of nutrients and light, the concentration of Chl-a in the Arctic Ocean is seasonal (Fig. 1.1), since the availability of these are driven by the sea-ice cover dynamics, the seasonal [...] understanding the typical size of the errors. Coefficient of Determination (R2) The coefficient of determination, R2, is a statistical measure that indicates the proportion of the variance in the dependent [...] measures of water clarity and light penetration. The presence of phytoplankton contributes to the light attenuation in the upper ocean layers, affecting the value of KD490. The ZSD is a simple measure of water

not really the true definition of PFTs. However, in the scope of our project the limitation of satellite products was clear, therefore we still use the term PFT.

Then it has been circulated with two iterations among the writing team, LOV and PML as part of the SynSenPFT consortium, and the “PFT algorithm i [...] limitation of this modelling approach is the choosing of the parameters governing the growth and loss of PFTs in the model. For instance laboratory studies have found maximum growth rates of different diatom
