ESA Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative (Ocean_Colour_cci): Monthly climatology of global ocean colour data products, Version 5.0

The ESA Ocean Colour CCI project has produced global, level 3, binned multi-sensor time-series of satellite ocean-colour data with a particular focus for use in climate studies.

This dataset contains a monthly climatology of the generated ocean colour products covering the period 1997 - 2020.

Data products being produced include: phytoplankton chlorophyll-a concentration; remote-sensing reflectance at six wavelengths; total absorption and backscattering coefficients; phytoplankton absorption coefficient and absorption coefficients for dissolved and detrital material; and the diffuse attenuation coefficient for downwelling irradiance for light of wavelength 490nm. Information on uncertainties is also provided.
