Short summary
Evidence is growing that bio-optical relationships in the Southern Ocean differ from what they are elsewhere. Uncertainties about these properties are far from been resolved. However, our study adds a new piece to this puzzle by examining the bio-optical properties of the absorption coefficient of colored dissolved organic matter, which is the least documented property in oceanic waters. As for the methodology, this is the first time that Biogeochemical-Argo float data are used to quantify it.
