Statement: Original Rrs data were from SeaWiFS reprocessing R2013.0 NASA GSFC http://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/SeaWiFS/Mapped/8Day/9km/Rrs/ See Johnson et.al. 2013 for full details. ****NETCDF FILENAMING CONVENTION FOR AQUA FILES**** The filenaming scheme puts a lot of useful metadata into the filename with the aim of making it easy to parse by machine and eye.
