Brief description
This record contains data collected at 20 stations on the Southern Surveyor cruise SS02/99. Water samples were generally collected along the transect of around 142deg E from 40-55deg S to determinethe bio-optical charateristics of this region. The data can be used for Ocean Colour and CDOM sensor validation. Parameters measured are the concentration of chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments and the absorption coefficient for dissolved (CDOM) particulate (a/p) and detrital or non-algal (a/d) components of the water column. Much of this was a repeat of a transect sampled during March 1998 on the Aurora Australis cruise AA06/97. In addition to the station samples, 25 water samples were collected from the outflow of the underway fluorometer and analysed for chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments only.Lineage
