Global surface ocean HPLC phytoplankton pigments and hyperspectral remote sensing reflectance

This dataset is a global surface ocean compilation of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) phytoplankton pigment concentrations and hyperspectral remote sensing reflectance (Rrs) data, with associated temperature and salinity measurements. The pigments measured include: total chlorophyll-a (Tchla), 19'-hexanoyloxyfucoxanthin (HexFuco), 19'-butanoyloxyfucoxanthin (ButFuco), alloxanthin (Allo), fucoxanthin (Fuco), peridinin (Perid), zeaxanthin (Zea), divinyl chlorophyll a (DVchla), monovinyl chlorophyll b (MVchlb), chlorophyll c1+c2 (Chlc12), chlorophyll c3 (Chlc3), neoxanthin (Neo), and violaxanthin (Viola). Rrs data are measured at 1 nm spectral resolution from 400-700 nm. The Rrs data from the ANT cruises were collected using a RAMSES hyperspectral radiometer, the Rrs data from the NAAMES, SABOR, Tara, RemSensPOC, BIOSOPE, and EXPORTS cruises were generated by a HyperPro (Satlantic, Inc.) hyperspectral radiometer. All samples presented in this dataset have previously been published and are publicly available, as referenced in the table: ANT: Bracher et al.

(2018), http://dx.doi.org/10.5067/SeaBASS/EXPORTS/DATA001. This compilation of these data is used in Kramer et al. (2021) to evaluate a model that reconstructs pigment concentrations from hyperspectral remote sensing reflectance.
