The North Sea is vulnerable to effects of climate change with significant societal impact to the coastal population. To support policy makers in strategic decisions, long-term and regional wide monitoring of essential climate variables (ECVs) are required to assess trends of climate changes. Satellite-based observations are cost-effective with complete spatial coverage within days not to be accomplished with hydrographic surveys using ships and monitoring buoys. However, calibration and validation of remote-sensed satellite data is challenging due to mismatch in the depths of measureme...
