Abstract

The dataset contains satellite-derived sea-surface Photosynthetically Available Radiation (PAR) measurements collected by means of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor onboard the NASA Aqua satellite. The data is available at monthly (2002 - present) intervals at a spatial resolution of 0.05 degrees. The geographic coverage is global.
