    • ESA CCI Ocean Colour Product (CCI ALL-v3.1-DAILY), 0.04166666°, 1997-2018, Lon0360

    Metadata Updated: June 10, 2023

    Data products generated by the Ocean Colour component of the European Space Agency Climate Change Initiative project. These files are daily composites of merged sensor (MERIS, Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Aqua, Sea-Wide Field-of-View Sensor (SeaWiFS) Local Area Coverage (LAC) & Global Area Coverage (GAC), Visible and Infrared Imager/Radiometer Suite (VIIRS)) products. MODIS Aqua and MERIS were band-shifted and bias-corrected to SeaWiFS bands and values using a temporally and spatially varying scheme based on the overlap years of 2003-2007. VIIRS was band-shifted and bias-corrected in a second stage against the MODIS Rrs that had already been corrected to SeaWiFS levels, for the overlap period 2012-2013. VIIRS and SeaWiFS Rrs were derived from standard NASA L2 products; MERIS and MODIS from a combination of NASA's l2gen (for basic sensor geometry corrections, etc) and HYGEOS Polymer v3.5 (for atmospheric correction). The Rrs were binned to a sinusoidal 4km level-3 grid, and later to 4km geographic projection, by Brockmann Consult's BEAM. Derived products were generally computed with the standard SeaDAS algorithms. QAA IOPs were derived using the standard SeaDAS algorithm but with a modified backscattering table to match that used in the bandshifting. The final chlorophyll is a combination of OC4, Hu's CI and OC5, depending on the water class memberships. Uncertainty estimates were added using the fuzzy water classifier and uncertainty estimation algorithm of Tim Moore as documented in Jackson et al (2017).

    Lineage Source data were: NASA OBPG SeaWiFS level2 R2014.0 LAC and GAC [A/C via l2gen], NASA OBPG VIIRS L2 R2014.0.1 (identical to R2014.0.2) [A/C via l2gen], NASA OBPG MODIS Aqua level 1A [A/C: l2gen equivalent to R2014.0.1 + Polymer 3.5] and ESA MERIS L1B (3rd reprocessing inc OCL correction) [Polymer v3.5]; Derived products were mainly produced with functions validated from the current NASA SeaDAS release and some custom implementations. Uncertainty generation determined by the fuzzy classifier scheme of Tim Moore (2009).
