Greenland expedition gathers a check on satellite ocean data
A new field report describes a Canadian-led expedition measuring waters along Greenland’s coast to help validate NASA’s PACE observations.

The voyage ran from 6 August to 3 September. Researchers collected water samples and measurements of how light interacts with the ocean. The September report describes data-gathering, rather than a final scientific conclusion.
