Abstract
Remote sensing reflectance (R<sub>rs</sub>) is a fundamental data of ocean color remote sensing that is used as an input data for algorithm development. In this study, the Rrs spectra acquired from the coast of Korea and California, on the opposite side of the Pacific Ocean, were analyzed and compared. The waters of Gyeonggi Bay and Mokpo had a similar spectrum to those of the waters inside of the San Francisco Bay, although the waters of each region had different characteristics. The South Sea in Korea showed similar spectral characteristics on the waters of Monterey Bay and outside of the San Francisco Bay in California. The upward slope of the Rrs spectra in the range of 400 to 600 nm obtained from the inside of the San Francisco Bay was higher than the coastal waters on the Gyeonggi Bay and Mokpo in Korea. The Rrs spectra showing peaks on 580 nm and 680 ~ 700 nm due to chlorophyll were similarly observed in the South and East Seas of Korea, and the coastal waters of Monterey Bay and the outside of the San Francisco Bay in California.
