MOD 26 - Ocean Water Attenuation Coefficient
Description:
This product (in conjunction with MOD 19, 23, and 24) provides particle concentrations
in Case 1 sea water, which have optical properties
dominated by chlorophyll and associated covarying
detrital pigments. (Case 2 waters contain substances
that affect optical properties that may not covary with
chlorophyll, such as gelbstoff, suspended sediments,
coccolithophores, detritus, and bacteria.) Product
26 gives the Ocean Water Attenuation Coefficient at
two wavelengths, 490 nm and 530 nm. This product
is available at Level 2 daily and at Level 3 daily, 8-
day weekly, monthly, and yearly.
