• Description:
  Our heritage ocean color satellites detect anywhere from 5–10 wavelengths, which has limited our ability to distinguish some of the aforementioned ocean properties from one another. The launch of the Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, and ocean Ecosystem (PACE)1 mission on February 8, 2024 introduced the satellite community to global “Hyper”-spectral measurements, meaning a spectrally continuous sampling of light. This has afforded the opportunity to sense the ocean through an entirely new lens by being able to resolve previously undetectable, subtle features unique to, for example, a particular phytoplankton class, or other ocean constituents.
