The Coastal Services Center's (CSC) Coastal Remote Sensing (CRS) program is involved with programs to validate satellite algorithms for ocean properties. CRS is involved with the effort to validate ocean color algorithms to derive chlorophyll concentrations from the NASA ocean color satellite, Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS). This program is funded in part through a NASA Sensor Intercomparison and Merger for Biological and Interdisciplinary Oceanic Studies (SIMBIOS) contract awarded to CRS and the Ocean Color Program at the NOAA NESDIS Office of Research and Applications. In addition, the cruise was conducted in support of the ECOHAB Project (Ecology and Oceanography of Harmful Algal Blooms) and eventual forecasting efforts. The cruise also supports ground truthing of aircraft overflights for the NOAA/CSC Estuarine Habitat Program (EHAB).
