REDIAM. WMS AQUA MODIS Satellite Imagery Series. K490 (Water Transparency) filtered monthly averages: Year 2021. 1 100 m. Atlantic Ocean and Alboran Sea.

WMS service corresponding to the set of monthly average images of k490 (Diffuse attenuation coefficient of light in water for the wavelength of 490 nm) captured by the SeaWiFS (Sea Viewing Wide Field of View Sensor) sensor captured by the MODIS (Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) sensor on board the AQUA satellite, corresponding to the year 2021. Spatial resolution of 1 100 m. In ETRS89 UTM spindle 30. In order to obtain annual images of k490 (Water Transparency) (m-1) on the Andalusian coast. The diffuse attenuation coefficient in the water indicates how light is attenuated within the water column, which helps to characterise the transparency of the water and therefore estimate the turbidity state of the waters of the Andalusian coast. In addition, this parameter has many applications in ocean optics, such as its relationship with the concentration of phytoplankton and organic and inorganic sediments dissolved in marine water.
