Kd490, NOAA S-NPP VIIRS, Science Quality, U.S. East Coast 750m, Level 3, 2012-present, Annual

Annual average diffuse attenuation coefficient at 490nm (Kd490) for the U.S. East Coast, from the VIIRS instrument aboard the S-NPP satellite, 2012-present, is produced using the Wang et al. (2009) algorithm, in which separate algorithms for clear open ocean and turbid coastal waters are weighted into a combined product. This approach improves accuracy across ocean conditions. Atmospheric correction uses the near-infrared (NIR) approach of Jiang and Wang (2014), referred to as the BMW atmospheric correction. The individual overpasses are composited into daily mean grids (~840m), then the daily mean grids are averaged into annual gridded chlorophyll-a.

The individual overpasses are composited into daily mean grids (~840m), then the daily mean grids are averaged into seasonal gridded chlorophyll-a. Data in the last year of the series represent near real-time data and are of lesser accuracy than the science-quality data of the years before the last year.

Level-3 Standard Mapped Image (SMI), Global, 4km, nLw671, Weekly composite data from the Visible and Infrared Imager/Radiometer Suite (VIIRS). These are science quality data with a 15-day latency. The data, processed by the NOAA/STAR Ocean Color Team, are produced from MSL12 v1.2 using OC-SDR v04 and were release by CoastWatch as of 2017-08-07. VIIRS is a multi-disciplinary instrument that flies on the Suomi-NPP (National Polar-orbiting Partnership) satellite and is the successor to MODIS. Suomi-NPP is the initial spacecraft in the JPSS (Joint Polar Satellite Systems) series of spacecraft. JPSS is our Nation's next generation polar-orbiting operational environmental satellite system. JPSS is a collaborative program between NOAA and its acquisition agent NASA.

Ocean Heat Content Product Suite (North Atlantic), 0.25°

The Satellite Ocean Heat Content (Office of Habitat Conservation (OHC)) Suite system produces two OHC files in ASCII and Network Common Data Format (NetCDF) where the output is defined on a 0.25 degree grid. For the daily files, the fields are: latitude, longitude, sea surface temperature (SST) in degrees Celsius, sea surface height anomaly (SSHA) in centimeters, mapping error, depths of 20degC (D20) and 26degC (D26) isotherms, ocean mixed layer depth (MLD), all in meters, and a satellite derived ocean heat content (OHC) in kJ/cm2. It runs once daily. OHC is mapped at 0.25 degree resolution with an accuracy within 10 to 15% of in situ data and a latency of 36 hours due to the receipt/processing required for the Sea Surface Height Anomaly data. Five GIF images were also to be created each day for OHC, SST, 20 degree isotherm, 26 degree isotherm, and Mixed Layer Depth.

The altimetry data are from RADS (http://rads.tudelft.nl/rads/rads.shtml), the Radar Altimetry Database System, first developed at Delft University of Technology, now also at the NOAA and the European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT). The RADS data for each mission is updated with state of the art corrections for tides, atmospheric path delay, etc. Because they are all computed consistently between the various missions, this avoids the possibility of introducing biases and drifts because of the different implementation of the various corrections by different agencies. The goals of RADS are to provide a homogenous dataset of sea level anomalies, wave heights, and wind speeds, along with database selection and analysis tools.
