Long-term retrieval (1998-2023) of colored dissolved organic matter absorption coefficient and dissolved organic carbon in the Mackenzie River-Beaufort Sea region using the Copernicus GlobColour product

In the regime-shifting Arctic, organic carbon export from river watersheds is expected to rise due to changes in hydrological regimes and permafrost thawing, affecting coastal and shelf biogeochemistry. Ocean color remote sensing enables monitoring inaccessible areas like the Beaufort Sea, improving our knowledge of coastal dynamics and land-to-ocean transport of Chromophoric Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM) and Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC) during the ice-free season.
