SeaDAS (version 6.1) was used to process the MODIS data from raw to L3 products. SeaDAS provides several algorithms for Chlorophyll products. The algorithm used here is the standard algorithm (OC3) (O'Reilly et al., 1998). The sequences of processing included: 1. raw - L1A, 2. L1A - L1B, 3. L1B - L2, 4. L2 - L3 (spatial) binning, and 5. L3 binning to L3 time-binning. The first four steps were applied to all individual (daily) raw images. After completing the above steps for one-month-worth-of images (around 300 images), in the fifth step, four weekly images were generated: 1. week1: from the 1st to the 7th of the month; 2. week2: from the 8th to the 14th of the month; 3. week3: from the 15th to the 21st of the month; 4. week4: from the 22nd to the last day of the month. The four weekly images were exported as HDF files, then imported into ArcGIS and converted into ArcInfo grids. Next, the four grids were mosaiced into a monthly image using the averaging method.
