Comparison of plankton levels between decades using satellite imagery

The global ocean chlorophyll archive produced by the CZCS was revised using compatible algorithms with SeaWiFS. Major changes were observed regionally: chlorophyll concentrations decreased in the northern high latitudes while chlorophyll in the low latitudes increased. These results provide evidence of how the Earth's climate may be changing and how ocean biota respond.
