Evaluating historic and modern optical techniques for monitoring phytoplankton biomass in the Atlantic Ocean

Evaluating historic and modern optical techniques for monitoring phytoplankton biomass in the Atlantic Ocean

Traditional measurements of the Secchi depth (zSD) and Forel-Ule colour were collected alongside modern radiometric measurements of ocean clarity and colour, and in-situ measurements of chlorophyll-a concentration (Chl-a), on four Atlantic Meridional Transect (AMT) cruises. These data were used to e...
