Abstract
    Space-time filling of the gaps in satellite data archives is an important step for the improvement of various marine ecosystem studies. The Data Interpolation with Empirical Orthogonal Functions methodology (DINEOF) allows calculating missing data in geophysical datasets without requiring a priori knowledge about statistics of the full data set [1]. It was successfully applied to SST reconstructions as in [1] and [2]. Here, the DINEOF reconstruction method is applied to surface chlorophyll a (CHL), total suspended matter (TSM) and sea surface temperature (SST) data over the Southern North Sea and English Channel obtained from the BELCOLOUR archive.
