| | Chlorophyll is the green pigment contained in phytoplankton. Their concentration (units: [mg]·[m]-3) in water affects the colour of the sea. Click here for information about the algorithm applied. (Click here if you have any problem in displaying the correct colour palette) |
Flags give indication about the quality of information given in the "chl" and "k490" images. White pixels are clouds. Red pixels indicate turbid coastal waters. Geophysical values for these pixels aren't reliable. Click here for more information |
Coefficient of underwater light attenuation measured at a wavelength of 490 nanometers (units: [m]-1). It is directly related to the water column turbidity. Click here for more information. (Click here if you have any problem in displaying the correct colour palette) |
