This dataset covers two decades (2003-2022) of phytoplankton absorption coefficients at 443nm (aph(443)) in Chinese coastal waters (water depth < 200m). The data were derived from Remote Sensing Reflectance (Rrs) using newly enhanced coastal aerosol models in combination with NASA\u2019s standard atmospheric correction methods. The resulting aph(443) values were then retrieved through the QAA_V6 algorithm. Based on 43,476 MODIS Aqua daily images at 1km resolution, the dataset was processed to produce a monthly median composite of aph(443) values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
