About
Dr. Stefan Simis is a leading expert in ocean colour remote sensing, with a primary focus on the optically complex waters of the Baltic Sea. His major contributions lie in advancing the accuracy and consistency of satellite-derived products in regions where high absorption by coloured dissolved organic matter (CDOM) presents significant challenges. Notably, his 2017 work on radiometric validation of atmospheric correction for MERIS, which has garnered 57 citations, established a rigorous framework using continuous ship and AERONET-OC observations to improve data reliability. More recently, his 2021 study on consistency between satellite ocean colour products under high CDOM absorption (14 citations) has been pivotal in quantifying uncertainties across different sensors, including Sentinel-3 OLCI-A and Suomi-NPP VIIRS. Dr. Simis’s research is instrumental in ensuring that satellite monitoring of phytoplankton in the Baltic Sea remains robust, directly supporting environmental management and climate studies in this critical region.
