Description

Chlorophyll Concentration (Chlorophyll a, chlor_a): Chlorophyll is an essential mediator in the marine primary production process. This dataset provides the surface chlorophyll concentration in the eastern Indian Ocean, established using the OC4V4 algorithm based on the empirical inversion model of chlorophyll concentration using blue-green band ratios. The unit is mg m-3.
Total Suspended Matter (TSM): Suspended matter refers to solid substances suspended in water, including inorganic and organic substances that are insoluble in water, as well as silt, clay, microorganisms, and more. This dataset employs the Tassan (1994) model to process the inversion of suspended matter concentration in low turbidity waters of the ocean and continental shelves. It also uses the model proposed by He et al. (RSE, 2013) for the inversion of suspended matter concentration in moderately turbid waters near the coast, and applies a weighted method to handle the transition zone between the two.
Seawater Transparency (SDD): Seawater transparency is a measure of the visibility of seawater, typically represented by the visible depth at which a white disc of 30cm diameter can be vertically lowered into the seawater. Its influencing factors include the color of seawater, suspended matter in the water, plankton, water turbulence, inflow into the seawater, as well as cloud cover in the sky. This dataset is obtained through the interpretation model of transparency and intrinsic optical properties of water.
