Bryan Franz is a Research Scientist and Assistant Chief for Science Research in the Ocean Ecology Laboratory at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Since 1996, he has supported research and operations for satellite remote sensing of ocean biology and biogeochmistry at NASA, and he currently co-leads the assessment, refinement, and periodic reprocessing efforts for the production of consistent ocean biological and biogeochemical climate data records from the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS), Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS), Visible and Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS), Ocean Land Color Imager (OLCI), and other satellite-based remote sensing radiometers. He is also currently leading the development of the Science Data Segment (SDS) for the Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) mission, and serves as PACE SDS Manager. His work at NASA has focused on standardization of atmospheric correction and bio-optical algorithms to derived consistent, multi-mission time-series of ocean optical and biogeochemical properties. He also contributes to the development of bio-optical inversion models for retrieval of marine inherent optical properties, vicarious calibration methods, and sensor cross-calibration techniques. He developed the processing software, vicarious calibration approach, and many of the validation and quality assessment methods used in the production of all global ocean color data products generated and distributed by NASA. Since 2009 he has served as the Ocean Discipline Leader for the MODIS Science Team and now the combined MODIS and VIIRS Science Team. Prior to his ocean color career, Bryan supported the calibration and scientific analysis of data from the DIRBE instrument on the Cosmic Background Explorer, including significant contributions to the modeling and removal of the radiometric signal from interplanetary dust to reveal the signature of primordial galaxies.
Satellite remote sensing of ocean biology and biogeochemistry
Visible to near infrared remote sensing of the oceans to retrieve the spectral radiance exiting the ocean surface (ocean color) and derive the concentration of optically active constituents within the upper ocean euphotic zone. This involves instrument calibration, atmospheric radiative transfer, and bio-optical and atmospheric correction algorithm development and implementation, and science product validation.
Ocean Biology Processing Group
Data processing, distribution, calibration, software and algorithm development, and product assessment for a host of visible to infrared imagers on earth observing satellites, including VIIRS on SNPP and the JPSS series, MODIS on Terra and Aqua, OLCI on Sentinel 3a and 3b, MERIS, SeaWiFS, HICO, GOCI, OCTS, and CZCS.
Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystems (PACE)
PACE will carry a hyperspectral instrument designed to measure ocean color, aerosol, and cloud properties, and two multi-angle polarimeters. The PACE Science Data Segment is responsible for instrument activity scheduling, data ingest, processing, quality control, and distribution of all science data products from PACE to the Distributed, Active Archive Center for public access.
