Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Optics
  • Infrared
  • Astronomy

Bryan A. Franz mainly focuses on Ocean color, SeaWiFS, Remote sensing, Atmospheric correction and Astrophysics. His work deals with themes such as Upwelling, IOPS and Optics, which intersect with Ocean color. The SeaWiFS study combines topics in areas such as Bay, Latitude, Spectroradiometer, Seasonality and Spatial variability.

The various areas that he examines in his Remote sensing study include Spatial ecology and Oceanography. His work carried out in the field of Atmospheric correction brings together such families of science as Meteorology, Aerosol, Marine Optical Buoy, Moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer and Radiance. His study on Galactic Center, Zodiacal light and COSMIC cancer database is often connected to Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment as part of broader study in Astrophysics.

His most cited work include:

  • The COBE Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment Search for the Cosmic Infrared Background. II. Model of the Interplanetary Dust Cloud (482 citations)
  • Chlorophyll aalgorithms for oligotrophic oceans: A novel approach based on three‐band reflectance difference (396 citations)
  • Examining the consistency of products derived from various ocean color sensors in open ocean (Case 1) waters in the perspective of a multi-sensor approach (353 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Bryan A. Franz mainly investigates Remote sensing, Ocean color, Atmospheric correction, SeaWiFS and Satellite. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Meteorology, Aerosol and Moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer. Bryan A. Franz combines subjects such as Hyperspectral imaging, Optics, Calibration, Radiometric calibration and Physical oceanography with his study of Ocean color.

His Atmospheric correction study combines topics in areas such as Image resolution, Pixel, Climate change, AERONET and Diffuse sky radiation. He interconnects Climatology, Spectroradiometer, Coastal Zone Color Scanner and Imaging spectrometer in the investigation of issues within SeaWiFS. His work in Satellite addresses subjects such as Radiative transfer, which are connected to disciplines such as Rayleigh scattering.
