The SNPP satellite platform carries a VIIRS sensor that observes sunlight reflected from within the ocean surface layer at multiple wavelengths. These multi-spectral measurements are used to infer the concentration of chlorophyll-a (Chl-a), most typically due to phytoplankton, present in the water. There are multiple retrieval algorithms for estimating Chl-a. These data use the Garver-Siegel-Maritorena (GSM) method implemented in the SeaDAS processing software l2gen and described in “Chapter 11, and references therein, of IOCCG Report 5, 2006, (http://ioccg.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/ioccg-report-05.pdf).
