Ocean colour data sources

Source: R/sources_ocean_colour.R
sources_ocean_colour.Rd

Data sources providing ocean colour data.

Usage

sources_ocean_colour(name, formats, time_resolutions, ...)

sources_ocean_color(name, formats, time_resolutions, ...)

Arguments

name

character vector: only return data sources with name or id matching these values

formats

character: for some sources, the format can be specified. See the list of sources above for details

time_resolutions

character: for some sources, the time resolution can be specified. See the list of sources above for details

...

: additional source-specific parameters. See the list of sources above for details

Value

a tibble with columns as specified by bb_source

Details

  • "Oceandata SeaWiFS Level-3 mapped monthly 9km chl-a": Monthly remote-sensing chlorophyll-a from the SeaWiFS satellite at 9km spatial resolution

  • "Oceandata MODIS Aqua Level-3 mapped daily 4km chl-a": Daily remote-sensing chlorophyll-a from the MODIS Aqua satellite at 4km spatial resolution

  • "Oceandata MODIS Aqua Level-3 mapped monthly 9km chl-a": Monthly remote-sensing chlorophyll-a from the MODIS Aqua satellite at 9km spatial resolution

  • "Oceandata VIIRS Level-3 mapped daily 4km chl-a": Daily remote-sensing chlorophyll-a from the VIIRS satellite at 4km spatial resolution

  • "Oceandata VIIRS Level-3 mapped monthly 9km chl-a": Monthly remote-sensing chlorophyll-a from the VIIRS satellite at 9km spatial resolution

  • "Oceandata VIIRS Level-3 mapped seasonal 9km chl-a": Seasonal remote-sensing chlorophyll-a from the VIIRS satellite at 9km spatial resolution

  • "Oceandata VIIRS Level-3 binned daily RRS": Daily remote-sensing reflectance from VIIRS. RRS is used to produce standard ocean colour products such as chlorophyll concentration

  • "Oceandata MODIS Aqua Level-3 binned daily RRS": Daily remote-sensing reflectance from MODIS Aqua. RRS is used to produce standard ocean colour products such as chlorophyll concentration

  • "Oceandata SeaWiFS Level-3 binned daily RRS": Daily remote-sensing reflectance from SeaWiFS. RRS is used to produce standard ocean colour products such as chlorophyll concentration

  • "Oceandata VIIRS Level-3 mapped 32-day 9km chl-a": Rolling 32-day composite remote-sensing chlorophyll-a from the VIIRS satellite at 9km spatial resolution

  • "Southern Ocean summer chlorophyll-a climatology (Johnson)": Climatological summer chlorophyll-a layer for the Southern Ocean south of 40S, following the OC3M algorithm of Johnson et al. (2013)
