String history
"Created with map_and_write_to_netcdf.R. Input data were 4km-resolution spring bloom metrics and annual average chlorophyll-a (chl-a) concentration per bin. Bloom metrics for each bin and year were derived from a shifted gaussian curve fitted to the time series of daily logged chl-a data within that bin. Chl-a data were taken from the POLY4 chl-a dataset which was generated using remote sensing reflectances (Rrs) from the OC-CCI multisensor product (www.oceancolour.org) and regionally-tuned coefficients, and subsequently gap-filled using DINEOF (https://github.com/aida-alvera/DINEOF).

Data Access Protocol (DAP) and its
projection constraints.
The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.
griddap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/jplMURSST41.htmlTable?analysed_sst[(2002-06-01T09:00:00Z)][(-89.99):1000:(89.99)][(-179.99):1000:(180.0)]
Thus, the query is often a data variable name (e.g., analysed_sst),
followed by [(start):stride:(stop)]
(or a shorter variation of that) for each of the variable's dimensions
(for example, [time][latitude][longitude]).
For details, see the griddap Documentation.
