Great Barrier Reef - Daintree River, October 2003, HPLC Pigment and Ocean Colour Data

This record contains data collected on the charter vessel Foundation One between 29 September and 3 October 2003. The data can be used for Ocean Colour sensor validation. Parameters measured are the concentration of chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments and retrieved chlorophyll a estimate, the absorption coefficient for dissolved (CDOM) particulate (a/p) and detrital or non-algal (a/d) components of the water column. 12 stations were sampled. The data was used primarily to validate ocean colour sensors MERIS, MODIS and SeaWIFs and the SST sensor AATSR. Samples were collected and analysed for     pigments, total suspended solids (TSS) and absorption coefficient, dissolved and particulate. CLW deployed instruments RAMSES, AC-9, Hydroscat and Hydrorad.

本数据集收录了2003年9月29日至10月3日期间，在租船“Foundation One”上采集的海洋观测数据。该数据可用于海洋水色传感器的验证工作。本次测量的参数包括叶绿素与类胡萝卜素色素浓度、反演叶绿素a估算值，以及水柱中溶解态有色溶解有机物（CDOM）、颗粒态（a/p）与碎屑/非藻类（a/d）组分的吸收系数。此次共布设12个采样站位。本数据集主要用于验证海洋水色传感器MERIS、MODIS、SeaWIFs以及海表温度传感器AATSR。研究人员对色素、总悬浮颗粒物（TSS）以及溶解态与颗粒态吸收系数进行了样品采集与分析。CLW部署了RAMSES、AC-9、Hydroscat与Hydrorad等观测仪器。
