Data Activity 4
Comparing Regional Chlorophyll Patterns Application Data Activity
Your Objective
Explore chlorophyll-a concentration data, from the 3-wavelength fluorometer, over time at different locations to investigate regional differences and similarities in primary productivity.
There are seven OOI arrays throughout the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.
Wetlabs ECO Triplet 3-wavelength fluorometer instrument collected the data for this activity.
Challenge (choose what interests you most)
- How does primary productivity vary over a year?
- How does primary productivity vary between inshore and offshore locations?
- How does primary productivity vary around the world?
