Color data


CATSAT provides ocean color maps indicative of the upper ocean phytoplancton content.
Most ocean features have a clean signature in color maps:

  • oceanic fronts
  • upwelling and eddies
Phytoplancton concentration is represented by brown for the high concentration: fish move to such areas to hunt and feed.
