Microphytobenthos samples were collected at sites where Martin Lourey worked. The Two Rocks data were collected at 5 stations on the Two Rocks transect as used during the SRFME project. The data were collected by two groups; one group sampled 5 stations from A (20 m depth), B, C, D to E (1000 m depth). The second group sampled 5 stations - T2, T3, T4, T5 and T6 where T3 was equivalent to station A and T6 was equivalent to station B. The data were collected to determine the bio-optical charateristics of this region. The data can be used for Ocean Colour sensor validation. Parameters measured are the concentration of chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments, These samples were analysed using the method of Wright et al 1991. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[114.0, -34.0], [116.5, -34.0], [116.5, -30.0], [114.0, -30.0], [114.0, -34.0]]]} 114.0 116.5 -34.0 -30.0 Data Link documentDigital Access all data - Australian-waters Earth Observation Phytoplankton-type Products (AEsOP) HTML Data Link documentDigital Data also available via IMOS and AODN portal HTML Data Link documentDigital Download LC_IMOS_SRS_BioOptical_B_Feb2002_Two_Rocks_pigment.zip (.csv, .xls, .nc) HTML Documentation Link documentDigital This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License HTML
