Southern Surveyor Voyage SS 07/2004 HPLC Pigment and Ocean Colour Data

Created 24/06/2017

Updated 24/06/2017

This record contains data collected on the RV Southern Surveyor on the west coast of Tasmania. The cruise ran from 23 July to 06 August 2004, with samples for this dataset collected between 26 July and 02 August 2004. 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 (aCDOM) 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, and dissolved and particulate absorption coefficients.
