SeaWIF chlorophyll data weekly processing 5.2

SeaWIF derived chlorophyll concentration, weekly data, processing version 5.2

Data from Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor flown on OrbView2 polar satellite are used to derive sea chlorophyll concentration. Original data are acquired from Goddard DAAC. Weekly averages were constructed from daily 9km maps and averaged on a 0.25 degree lat/lon grid map.

IMPORTANT: Although the data are not copyrighted, their use is restricted to NASA authorized research. For more details regarding use of the data refer to: http://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/SeaWiFS/ANNOUNCEMENTS/APPENDIX_B.html

Only data past 5 years are considered public domain.
