Short summary
The present study developed a satellite remote sensing algorithm for estimating phytoplankton size structure from space using machine learning approaches in optically complex Pacific Arctic waters. One of the key findings is that more complex machine learning approaches do not always produce more effective performance compared with the simple ones. This study demonstrated the benefits of utilizing machine learning approaches for developing satellite remote sensing algorithms.
