This pigment is an index of the biomass of microscopic algae. Compared to the Atlantic Ocean, the waters of the Estuary and the Gulf of St. Lawrence are rather isolated and are strongly mixed with fresh water from many rivers. The method for retrieving chlorophyll must be adapted to these specificities. This dataset presents the result of a method developed to find the concentration of chlorophyll-a derived by various satellites (5) in the estuary and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The two satellites AQUA and Visible and Infrared Imager/Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) are still active and collect daily data.
