Summary
Abstract: Spectra of downwelling irradiance and upwelling, water-leaving radiance were measured continuously, as fast as light-levels would allow, during stations and whilst the ship was underway. Data processing will yield reflectance spectra along the cruise track.

Data Acquisition:

One irradiance sensor was mounted on the monkey isle looking directly upwards. Two identical radiance sensors were ... View entire text

Quality Data quality appear good with data loss when heavier seas rotated the sensor mounting pole. In these cases, the data will be removed from the issued dataset.

Visible radiometers measured in daylight at a temporal resolution of the order of milli-seconds, corresponding to spatial resolution on the order of metres or less.
