SERVIR (Mesoamerican Regional Visualization and

Monitoring System) provides real-time data and video

animations of ocean color (chlorophyll concentrations)

based on MODIS/Aqua data31.

Data Needs

Data

Methods for using ocean color data in coastal areas

are in the developmental stage with established

oceanographic researchers. Regional training in data

collection, analysis, validation and output production

should be offered to enable technicians in the region

to use SeaWiFS and MODIS data for monitoring fluvial

runoff and processes affecting ocean color. We need

to raise public awareness of the existing capacity and

products readily available on the SERVIR website31.
