For these trends, the SeaWiFS data from the year 2000 was compared to each year of the CZCS mission. Mean values for each date were derived by averaging bins from the 8-day, 9-km binned products of each sensor. Only those bins observed by both sensors were included in the averages. Apparent variability in SeaWiFS from year to year is therefore due only to the variation in spatial sampling of each subset over the CZCS mission. The year 2000 was chosen for SeaWiFS as a typical year (uneffected by major geophysical events like el nino).
