Great Barrier Reef, September 2005, HPLC Pigment and Ocean Colour Data

This record contains data collected on the charter vessel RV Lady Basten between 16 and 21 September 2005 in the Great Barrier Reef. The data can be used for Ocean Colour sensor validation. Parameters measured are the concentration of chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments , the absorption coefficient for dissolved (aCDOM) particulate (ap) and detrital or non-algal (ad) components of the water column and the total suspended matter. 32 stations were sampled. The data was used primarily to validate ocean colour sensors MERIS, MODIS and SeaWIFs . CLW deployed instruments RAMSES, ac-9 and Hydroscat.

本记录包含2005年9月16日至21日期间，在大堡礁（Great Barrier Reef）区域通过租赁船舶RV Lady Basten采集的数据。该数据集可用于海洋水色传感器（Ocean Colour sensor）的验证工作。所测参数包括叶绿素与类胡萝卜素色素浓度、水体中溶解性（aCDOM）、颗粒性（ap）及碎屑或非藻类（ad）组分的吸收系数，以及总悬浮物含量。共对32个站位进行了采样。该数据主要用于验证海洋水色传感器MERIS、MODIS及SeaWIFs。CLW部署了RAMSES、ac-9及Hydroscat仪器。
