A new merged dataset of global ocean chlorophyll-a concentration for better trend detection (Version: Monthly V1.0)

Chlorophyll-a concentration (Chla) is recognized as an essential climate variable and is one of the primary parameters of ocean-color satellite products. Ocean-color missions have accumulated continuous Chla data for over two decades since the launch of SeaWiFS in 1997. However, the on-orbit life of a single mission is about five to ten years. To build a dataset with a time span long enough to serve as a climate data record (CDR), it is necessary to merge the Chla data from multiple sensors. The European Space Agency has developed two sets of merged Chla products, namely GlobColour and OC-CCI, which have been widely used. Nonetheless, issues remain in the long-term trend analysis of these two datasets because the intermission differences in Chla have not been completely corrected. To obtain more accurate Chla trends in the global and various oceans, we produced a new dataset by merging Chla records from the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor, Medium-spectral Resolution Imaging Spectrometer, Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite, and Ocean and Land Colour Instrument with intermission differences corrected in this work. The fitness of the dataset as a CDR was validated by using in situ Chla and comparing the trend estimates to the multi-annual variability of different satellite Chla records.
