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.

本数据集涵盖2003年9月29日至10月3日期间，在包租科考船"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定标验证。实测参数包括叶绿素与类胡萝卜素色素浓度、反演叶绿素a浓度估算值，以及水体中溶解态（CDOM，Colored Dissolved Organic Matter）、颗粒态（a/p）与碎屑/非藻类（a/d）组分的吸收系数。本次调查共布设12个采样站位，数据主要用于验证海洋水色传感器MERIS（中分辨率成像光谱仪，Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer）、MODIS（中分辨率成像光谱辐射计，Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer）、SeaWIFs（宽视场海洋观测传感器，Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor），以及海表面温度（Sea Surface Temperature, SST）传感器AATSR。采样工作针对色素、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样品采集与分析。CLW部署了RAMSES、AC-9、Hydroscat及Hydrorad等仪器。
