Water Quality Forecasting

This software includes the forecast processor authored for the Forecasting Water Quality from Space study proposed by and granted to Brockmann Consult GmbH in reply to ESA's Invitation to Tender for Future EO-1 EO Science for Society Permanently Open Call for Proposals, ESA Ref. ESA AO/1-10468/20/I-FvO.

The objective of the study is to provide time series forecasts of chlorophyll concentration. Predicted chlorophyll concentration is derived from EO-based retrievals of chlorophyll concentration and several covariates, which are routinely provided by reanalysis and forecast services based on biological, chemical, physical, and meteorological models.
