EMIS - MODIS-AQUA Monthly mean sea surface Chlorophyll-a concentration (4km)
Algal biomass (chlorophyll concentration, Chla in mg.m-3): Chlorophyll is a photosynthetic pigment commonly present in all phytoplankton species. It is used as a proxy for phytoplankton biomass. Chlorophyll concentration is a standard product from satellite-based optical sensors, usually retrieved from empirical algorithms using reflectance ratios at two or more wavebands.

EMIS - MODIS-AQUA Monthly mean sea surface diffuse attenuation coefficient (4km)
Water Transparency (Diffuse attenuation coefficient at 490nm, Kd490 in m-1): The diffuse attenuation coefficient Kd490 measures the light penetration in the water column at the blue-green wavelengths (ca. 490 nm). It represents a good indicator of water transparency resulting from the combined action of absorption and backscattering by the water constituents, and the structure of the surrounding light field.

Water productivity (primary production, pp in gCarbon.m-2.day-1): The primary production represents the amount of organic carbon produced through phytoplankton photosynthesis. It is a critical element of the Earth's carbon budget and the marine food web. The depth-integrated primary production is modeled from the satellite-based phytoplankton biomass concentration and PAR.
