• 2011-01-25 Removing Mar-Sep 2010 modis-based vgpm NPP. There was a problem with the aqua sst4 used. Dr O'Malley is reproducing the NPP with the corrected Aqua sst4 input.

• 2011-01-21 R2010 8-day SeaWiFS CBPM2 replaced with an improved product. Robert O'Malley added "a trap on the maximum growth rate" and some NPP gap-filling to the process.

• 2010-12-22 R2010 CBPM2 added. Note CBPM will no longer be produced. Here after NPP produced after 2010 will be the spectral variety and the 2 will be dropped from the name.

note there is an R2010 area. It was waiting for Aqua and Merged products to be made public, but that might be a couple more months.

• actual link to CbPM2 model results added. [Sorry]

• 2010-10-26 CBPM2 NPP model results added.

• 2010-10-18 replaced NPP with new data derived after the R2009.1 reprocessing.

• 2010-09-17 add composite data GSMbin added. Like the daily GSMbin counterpart, except GSMcovMask replaced with the number of pixels composited per bin. The confidence intervals (GSMchl_sig, GSMbbp_sig, GSMacdm_sig) for composite data were also added (actually back in July). These were calculated from composite_sig=sqrt(sum(daily_sig.^-2))

• 2010-08-16 all products (Aqua, SeaWiFS, Merged) have been were reprocessed in June using R2009. Today those were swapped in. The new data have the version "5", in the file name.

• 2009-11-18 SeaWiFS GSM products have been regenerated using R2009.1 Rrs.

• 2009-10-23 an issue has been discovered with the NIR water-leaving radiance model and iteration process as employed in the SeaWiFS 2009.0 reprocessing. "...we know it will have some effect on coastal retrievals, so we anticipate a 2009.1 reprocessing of SeaWiFS in the near future.

• Orbview 2 has been in Safe Haven since the end of August 2009. No SeaWiFS data have been available.

• site updated 12 Oct 2009: new SeaWiFS R2009 was inverted to make new SeaWiFS GSM products. Processing version number incremented to 5.

• Site update 14 Jul 2009: OpenDAP server on line. Access via the Services page.

• Site update 9 Jun 2009: NPP product family page and links to data added.

• SeaWiFS has been in safe haven since 4/23/2009 (day 113). It is not collecting data, so there will be a gap in SeaWiFS and Merged products. 12:34, 26 May 2009 (PDT)

• Site updates 25 May 2009 -- some features not yet implemented.

• Note on missing data (22 Apr 2009)
