PACE OCI Level-3 Global Mapped Particulate Organic Carbon (POC) Data, version 3.2

The Particulate Organic Carbon (POC) data suite includes product of particulate organic carbon concentration from ocean-color reflectance. POC is widely used to quantify surface carbon stocks, support biogeochemical and export-flux studies, and provide ecological context alongside chlor_a, bbp, Kd_490, and SST. Geophysical variables in this suite include: - poc — Particulate Organic Carbon (mg C m⁻³), D. Stramski, 2007 (443/555 version)/ Stramski et al. 2022 for PACE)
