Water color remote sensing is vital for the monitoring and quantification of marine suspended sediment dynamics and their distributions. Yet validations of these observables in coastal regions and deltaic estuaries, including the Hangzhou Bay in the East China Sea, remain challenging, primarily due to the pronounced complex oceanic dynamics that exhibit high spatiotemporal variability in the signals of the suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in the ocean. Here, we integrate satellite images from the sun-synchronous satellites, China’s Huanjing (Chinese for environmental, HJ)-1A/B (charged couple device) CCD (30 m), and from Korea’s Geostationary Ocean Color Imager GOCI (500 m) to the spatiotemporal scale effects to validate SSC remote sensing-retrieved data products. A multi-scale validation framework based on coefficient of variation (CV)-based zoning was developed, where high-resolution HJ CCD SSC data were resampled to the GOCI scale (500 m), and spatial variability was quantified using CV values within corresponding HJ CCD windows. Traditional validation, comparing in situ point measurements directly with GOCI pixel-averaged data, introduces significant uncertainties due to pixel heterogeneity. The results indicate that in regions with high spatial heterogeneity (CV > 0.10), using central pixel values significantly weakens correlations and increases errors, with performance declining further in highly heterogeneous areas (CV > 0.15), underscoring the critical role of spatial averaging in mitigating scale-related biases. This study enhances the quantitative assessment of uncertainties in validating medium-to-low-resolution water color products, providing a robust approach for high-dynamic oceanic environment estuaries and bays.
