SeaWIFS K490 Mean

This data set contains the mean of SeaWIFS k490 generated from the climatology monthly means; the monthly climatologies represent the mean values for each month across the whole dataset time series. K490 indicates the turbidity of the water column: how the visible light in the blue: green region of the spectrum penetrates within the water column. It is directly related to the presence of scattering particles in the water column. The data are received as monthly composites, with a 4 km resolution, and are constrained to the region between 90E and 180E, and 10N to 60S. The data was sourced from http://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/SeaWiFS/. This dataset is a contribution to the CERF Marine Biodiversity Hub.

本数据集包含基于月均气候态生成的SeaWIFS k490参数均值；该月均气候态数据集代表了全数据集时间序列中各月份的平均数值。
K490用于表征水柱浊度，即光谱蓝绿波段的可见光在水柱中的穿透能力，其与水柱内散射颗粒物的存在直接相关。
本数据以月合成产品形式提供，空间分辨率为4千米，覆盖范围限定在东经90°至180°、北纬10°至南纬60°的海域。
