Phytoplankton primary productivity calculations using model and satellite data in the Nordic Seas from 2003-03-06 to 2018-10-06 (NCEI Accession 0208234)

The dataset contains daily primary production (PP) estimates in mgC/m^2/day (milligrams carbon per meter squared per day) for the subarctic Atlantic area (Nordic Seas) between 2003 and 2018, obtained with a wavelength-resolved model applied to ocean-observing satellite data (Bélanger et al., 2013; also described in the supplementary material of Mayot et al., submitted). The dataset has a spatiotemporal resolution of 8-day and ~30 km.

The dataset corresponds to 16 tables (one for each year between 2003 and 2018) that contains annual time series of PP (between March 6 and October 15) for each pixel of the satellite image. The first two columns provide the longitude and latitude of each pixel were a time series of PP is available. The following twenty-seven columns correspond to estimated daily PP averaged over twenty-seven 8 days time period, from March 6 to October 7.
