Light condition, day length, and amount of incident sunlight vary widely with season in the Arctic. Absorption-based primary production (PP) models incorporate light absorption coefficients and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR); however, algorithm sensitivity to such parameters has not been investigated in the Arctic Ocean. Therefore, we assessed the performance and sensitivity of the vertical generalized production model (VGPM) modified with three absorption-based approaches in relation to in situ and satellite-derived optical and PP data acquired in summer and autumn in the Pacific Arctic region. Based on the VGPM, the absorption-based algorithms, which were developed originally to estimate daily phytoplankton PP in the euphotic layer (PPeu) from the absorption coefficient of phytoplankton and the absorbed radiation (photons) by phytoplankton (ARP) in the Pacific Arctic, were investigated to assess their performance and sensitivity. All approaches exhibited little bias for in situ input parameters and in situ remote sensing reflectance. ThePPeuestimation using ARP showed small biases when using satellite data as input. The unbiased root mean square difference was not small, even when using in situ data as input, which suggests inherent problems regarding estimation of quantum yield from only optical parameters. Sensitivity analysis revealed that error not only in the absorption coefficient but also in PAR influencesPPeuestimation, particularly when using ARP. The model using the absorption coefficients applied to Second-generation Global Imager data provided a satisfactory estimation ofPPeuin the Pacific Arctic where sky conditions can be variable.
