Title
Dec-Feb Chlorophyll a Anomaly 2016 mg m^-3
Abstract

Layer shows Chlorophyll a deviation during the North East Monsoon season based on a long-term mean. 2003-2016.
To derive the 2016 anomaly products, we used the raster calculator in ArcGIS 10.3 to derive the 2016 seasonal average, and subtracted from this the long-term seasonal average from the 2003-2016 data series.
