NASA GSFC Ocean Color Web distributes science-quality chlorophyll-a
concentration data from the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS)
on the Orbview-2 satellite. This version is the 2014.0 Reprocessing (R2014.0).

The SeaWiFS instrument was launched by Orbital Sciences Corporation on the
OrbView-2 (a.k.a. SeaStar) satellite in August 1997, and collected data from
September 1997 until the end of mission in December 2010. SeaWiFS had 8
spectral bands from 412 to 865 nm. It collected global data at 4 km
resolution, and local data (limited onboard storage and direct broadcast)
at 1 km. The mission and sensor were optimized for ocean color measurements,
with a local noon (descending) equator crossing time orbit, fore-and-aft
tilt capability, full dynamic range, and low polarization sensitivity.

CalCOFI Larvae Counts, Scientific Names V to Z

Fish larvae counts and standardized counts for larvae captured in CalCOFI icthyoplankton nets (primarily vertical [Calvet or Pairovet], oblique [bongo or ring nets], and surface tows [Manta nets]). Surface tows are normally standardized to count per 1,000 m3 strained. Oblique tows are normally standardized to count per 10 m2 of surface sampled. This table includes all tows by species, even if zero larvae were captured for the species, i.e., negative tows. The "Larvae Counts Positive Tows" table includes only tows where one or more larvae were captured for the species selected by the user.

Surface ocean velocities estimated from HF-Radar are representative 
of the upper 1.0 meters of the ocean.  The main objective of 
near-real time processing is to produce the best product from 
available data at the time of processing.  Radial velocity 
measurements are obtained from individual radar sites through the 
U.S. HF-Radar Network. Hourly radial data are processed by unweighted 
least squares on a 2km resolution grid of the U.S. West Coast to 
produce near real-time surface current maps.
