Great Barrier Reef - Daintree River, April 2004, HPLC Pigment and Ocean Colour Data

This record contains data collected on the charter vessel Foundation One between 31 March and 03 April 2004. 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. 8 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2004年3月31日至4月3日期间，在租赁调查船‘Foundation One’上采集的观测数据。该数据集可用于海洋水色传感器的验证工作。本次测量的参数涵盖叶绿素与类胡萝卜素色素浓度、反演得到的叶绿素a估算值，以及水柱中溶解态（CDOM）、颗粒态（a/p）与碎屑/非藻类（a/d）组分的吸收系数。本次调查共完成8个站位的采样作业。本数据集主要用于验证海洋水色传感器MERIS、MODIS与SeaWIFs，以及海表温度（Sea Surface Temperature, SST）传感器AATSR。采集的样本针对色素、总悬浮颗粒物（Total Suspended Solids, TSS）以及溶解态与颗粒态吸收系数开展了分析测试。CLW团队部署了RAMSES、AC-9、Hydroscat与Hydrorad等观测仪器。
