BICEP/NCEO: Monthly global Particulate Organic Carbon (POC), between 1997-2020 at 4 km resolution (produced from the Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative v5.0 dataset)

The BICEP/NCEO: Monthly global Particulate Organic Carbon (POC) v5 datasets contain POC concentrations (mg m^-3) with per pixel uncertainties estimates gridded on both geographic and sinusoidal projections at 4 km spatial resolution for the period of 1997 to 2020. The POC products were generated as part of the European Space Agency (ESA) Biological Pump and Carbon Exchange Processes (BICEP) project with support from the National Centre of Earth Observation (NCEO).

The POC datasets have been produced by using a modified empirical band ratio algorithm by Stramski et al. (2008): 292*Rrs(490)/Rrs(560)^-1.49. Additional variables that were used for the calculation of the POC products are also provided in the datasets, including the Remote Sensing Reflectance (Rrs) at 490 nm and 560 nm obtained from the ESA Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative version 5 dataset (OC-CCI v5). For more details on the algorithm and its validation, please see the BICEP Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document (ATBD) and validation report (https://bicep-project.org/Home).

A related dataset based on the ESA Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative v4.2 data is also available (see link in the related records section).

BICEP/NCEO：全球月度颗粒有机碳（POC）v5数据集包含POC浓度（mg/m³）及其每像素不确定度估计，数据以地理和正弦投影格式网格化，空间分辨率为4公里，时间范围为1997年至2020年。POC产品作为欧洲空间局（ESA）生物泵与碳交换过程（BICEP）项目的一部分生成，并得到了国家地球观测中心（NCEO）的支持。POC数据集采用Stramski等（2008）提出的改进经验波段比算法生成：292*Rrs(490)/Rrs(560)^-1.49。此外，用于计算POC产品的其他变量也包含在数据集中，包括从ESA海洋颜色气候变化倡议版本5数据集（OC-CCI v5）获得的490纳米和560纳米的遥感反射率（Rrs）。关于算法及其验证的更多详细信息，请参阅BICEP算法理论基础文件（ATBD）和验证报告（https://bicep-project.org/Home）。此外，基于ESA海洋颜色气候变化倡议v4.2数据的相关数据集也可用（参见相关记录部分链接）。
