Researchers have long relied on satellite ocean color observations to describe phytoplankton at a global scale. From these satellite observations, chlorophyll-a—a commonly used proxy for carbon ...

The ecology and biogeochemistry of Earth depend heavily on marine phytoplankton. Satellite ocean color data that allow for the estimation of chlorophyll-a (Chla), a frequently used proxy for ...
