attribute NC_GLOBAL history String Created with make_mapped_netcdf.R. Input data are 4km-resolution level-3 binned remote sensing reflectances (Rrs) from NASA OBPG, subset to the region of interest and used in conjunction with the most recent set of regionally-tuned parameters to generate the level-3 binned product. The data is then mapped using a Plate Carrée projection and an area-weighted mean for pixels with multiple overlapping bins.
