NPP Product Family Description
The ocean color products available here were made using Level 3, 8 day, binned imagery from SeaWiFS and MODIS-Aqua. There are two principal products: results from the Vertically Generalized Productivity Model (VGPM) and the Carbon-based Productivity Model (CbPM).
VGPM:
Full description of the VGPM model can be found here:
http://www.science.oregonstate.edu/ocean.productivity/vgpm.model.php
The NPP grids are 2160x4320, SMI-like format. Files are stored in HDF format, gzipped.
For Seawifs-based VGPM NPP calculations, SeaWiFS chlor_a, PAR, and AVHRR sst products are used to compute NPP.
The file naming convention is:
vgpm.YYYYddd.hdf.gz where ddd is the start of the 8 day interval.
For Aqua-based VGPM NPP calculations, MODIS (Aqua) chlor_a, PAR, and SST4 are used.
The file naming convention is:
vgpm.YYYYddd.hdf.gz where ddd is the start of the 8 day interval.
These files also are collected by year into tar archives, with the file name convention:
yearlyTarWads/vgpm.[m|s].YYYY.tar
CbPM:
Full description of the CbPM model can be found here:
http://www.science.oregonstate.edu/ocean.productivity/carbon2.model.php
The NPP grids are 2160x4320, SMI-like format. Files are stored in HDF format, gzipped.
For Seawifs-based CbPM NPP calculations, SeaWiFS GSM chlorophyll and bbp products are used to compute NPP.
The file naming convention is:
cbpm.YYYYddd.hdf.gz where ddd is the start of the 8 day interval.
For Aqua-based VGPM NPP calculations, MODIS (Aqua) GSM chlorophyll and bbp products are used.
The file naming convention is:
cbpm.YYYYddd.hdf.gz where ddd is the start of the 8 day interval.
Both SeaWiFS and Aqua-based CbPM computations use FNMOC MLD ( http://www.science.oregonstate.edu/ocean.productivity/mld.html)
These files also are collected by year into tar archives, with the file name convention:
yearlyTarWads/cbpm.[m|s].YYYY.tar where "m" indicates MODIS Aqua based NPP and "s" indicates SeaWiFS based NPP.
CbPM2:
