Region of Kerch Strait - south of the Azov Sea and north-east of the Black Sea

Chlorophyll pigment concentrations in sediment; Raw temperature and/or salinity instrument output

Unknown

The dataset contains fragments of (A)SAR images and corresponding Modis and AVHRR derivatives (for cloudless conditions) - sea surface temperature (SST), water-leaving radiance (WRL, RGB composites), chlorophyll-a concentration (Chl-a) images - obtained from April to October, 2006 over Kerch Strait.
