| * » Abstract |
Ocean color remote sensing provide routine, synoptic observations of the ocean surface at spatial and temporal resolutions not attainable by moored or ship-based platforms. Ocean color sensors measure the spectral distribution of reflected sunlight, which can be used to infer the contents of the water, including chlorophyll a concentrations, a proxy for phytoplankton biomass. Phytoplankton are the base of the marine food web and are critical regulators of key biogeochemical processes. Primary productivity esimates are modeled using chlorophyll a, photosynthetic available radiation, and sea surface temperature. |
| * Purpose |
To provide weekly, monthly and annual primary productivity estimates of the U.S. East Coast |

| » If Distributor (Data Hosting Service) is Needed, Please Indicate | |
| » Approximate Delay Between Data Collection and Dissemination | 90 |
| » If Delay is Longer than Latency of Automated Processing, Indicate Under What Authority Data Access is Delayed |
There is an approximate 60-90 delay in the release of the ancillary data needed to generate the science quality data, then additional data is needed in the time series to temporally interpolate the input data. |
