Several years of effort have led to an important California Current merged satellite-derived 4 km dataset becoming openly available online. The website provides access to regionally optimized remote sensing products and rigorously integrated time series for chlorophyll-a, net primary production, and export flux of carbon from 1996 to 2019.
