Description:"The purpose of this cruise aboard the NOAA Ship Nancy Foster was to collect in situ optical and ancillary data for validation of JPSS VIIRS satellite ocean color radiometry and derived products [Wang et al., 2013; Wang et al., 2014]. Specific objectives are detailed below in Section 3. The project interval was 9 to 22 November 2014. This 14-day interval included 10 days at sea (including transits), 2 staging days, 1 de-staging day and 1 day crew rest. Days at sea were 11 to 20 November 2014. Ship time aboard the NOAA Ship Nancy Foster (http://www.moc.noaa.gov/nf/) was funded through an allocation by the NOAA Office of Marine and Aviation Operations (OMAO). Ten investigator groups from 11 institutions participated in the cruise... The cruise departed from and returned to Charleston, SC, USA, the Foster's home port. The primary area of operations was the Western Atlantic along the U.S. Mid- and Southeastern Coast, including cross-shelf, Gulf Stream and blue waters"--Page 1.
