S-MODE PRISM Level 1 Radiance and Ancillary Products Version 1

Published by NASA/JPL/PODAAC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: July 14, 2026 at 10:21 PM | Dataset Last Updated: June 23, 2026
This dataset contains PRISM data from the Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE) during the IOP1 campaign conducted approximately 300 km offshore of San Francisco during Fall 2022. S-MODE aims to understand how ocean dynamics acting on short spatial scales influence the vertical exchange of physical and biological variables in the ocean. The Portable Remote Imaging Spectrometer (PRISM) is an airborne instrument package that is mounted on the GIII aircraft which flies long duration detailed surveys of the field domain during deployments. PRISM contains a pushbroom imaging spectrometer operating at near-UV to near-IR wavelengths (350-1050 nm), which will produce high temporal resolution and resolve spatial features as small as 30 cm. PRISM also has a two-channel spot radiometer at short-wave infrared (SWIR) band (1240 nm and 1640 nm), that is co-aligned with the spectrometer and will be used to provide accurate atmospheric correction of the ocean color measurements. Level 1 data is available in netCDF format.
