Chlorophyll-a, Aqua MODIS, NPP, 0.0125°, West US, EXPERIMENTAL, 2002-present (8 Day Composite), Lon+/-180

NOAA CoastWatch distributes chlorophyll-a concentration data from NASA's Aqua Spacecraft.  Measurements are gathered by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) carried aboard the spacecraft.  The algorithm currently used in processing the water leaving radiance to chlorophyll concentration has not yet been accepted as science quality.  In addition, assumptions are made in the atmospheric correction in order to provide the data in a timely manner.

VARIABLES (all of which use the dimensions [time][altitude][latitude][longitude]):
chlorophyll (Concentration Of Chlorophyll In Sea Water, mg m-3)


Fluorescence, Aqua MODIS, NPP, 0.0125°, West US, 2002-present (8 Day Composite), Lon+/-180

MODIS measures chlorophyll fluorescence, which gives insight into the physiology of phytoplankton in the ocean. When phytoplankton are under stress, the rate at which the fluoresce can be decoupled from the rate of photosynthetic productivity.

VARIABLES (all of which use the dimensions [time][altitude][latitude][longitude]):
fluorescence (microwatt cm-2 s-2 nm-1 sr-1)


SST, Aqua MODIS, NPP, 0.0125°, West US, Day time (11 microns), 2002-present (8 Day Composite), Lon+/-180

NOAA CoastWatch provides SST data from NASA's Aqua Spacecraft.  Measurements are gathered by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) carried aboard the spacecraft.
