ADEOS-II/GLI L2 Ocean color is obtained from the GLI (Global-Imager) sensor onboard ADEOS-II and produced by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). Global environment change has become a worldwide concern in recent years. In order to clarify these environmental changes, the Advanced Earth Observing Satellite (ADEOS-II, renamed "Midori II" after launch) has been developed for the purpose of monitoring the Earth environment using remote sensing technology from space. Midori II carries mission instruments that are particularly dedicated to clarify the water energy cycle and the carbon cycle, and is expected to be utilized for international climate change research programs. GLI an optical sensor that observes the reflected solar radiation from the Earth's surface, including land, oceans and clouds and/or infrared radiation with a multi-channel system for measuring the biological content. The SGLI has a swath of 1600 km. This product includes Chlorophyll_a concentration, Attenuation at 490 nm, Suspended solid concentration, CDOM absorption at 440nm. They are derived from GLI_ADEOS-II_L2_NW data by using empirical relationships based on in-water NWLR and measurements of the products of interest. Each physical unit is mg/m^3, 1/m g/m^3 and 1/m. The provided format is HDF. Map projection is not done. Generation unit is path. The spatial resolution is approximately 4 km. The current version of the product is "Version 2".
