Coastal Zone Colour Scanner (CZCS) composited mean-monthly maps for the Australian EEZ region. The original NASA monthly composites have been processed by John Parslow and Chris Rathbone of the CSIRO Division of Fisheries to produce, for each month, images which are the mean over the 8 years of sampling. These have then been very simply remapped to a 1/2 degree grid, compatible with the "regional seasonal ocean physical property maps". The maps are all in units of pigment/m3.
