Full description
This record contains data collected on the charter vessel RV Explorer between 16 and 18 January 2008 from the Derwent River, Tasmania. The data can be used for Ocean Colour sensor validation. Parameters measured are the concentration of chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments and retrieved chlorophyll a estimate, the absorption coefficient for dissolved (CDOM) particulate (ap) and detrital or non-algal (ad) components of the water column; 14 stations were sampled. The data was used primarily to validate ocean colour sensors MERIS, MODIS and SeaWIFs. Samples were collected and analysed for pigments, total suspended solids (TSS) and absorption coefficient, dissolved and particulate. CLW deployed instruments RAMSES, ac-9, Hydroscat and Hydrorad.Lineage
