E.R. Firestone ABSTRACT The Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) Zone Color Scanner (CZCS), which ceased operations and S.B. Hooker is the follow-on ocean color instrument to the Coastal in 1986, after an eight year mission. SeaWiFS is expected to be launched in August 1993, on the SeaStar satellite, being built by Orbital Sciences Corporation (OSC). The SeaWiFS Project at the NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) has undertaken the responsibility of documenting all aspects of this mission, which is critical to the ocean color and marine science communities. This documentation, entitled the Sea WiFS Technical Report Series, is in the form of NASA Technical Memoranda Number 104566. All reports published are volumes guidebook, to the previous five volumes and consists within the series. This volume serves as a reference, or of four main sections including an index to key words and phrases, a list of all references cited, and lists of acronyms and symbols used. It is our intention to publish a summary index of this type after every five volumes in the series. This will cover the topics published in all previous editions of the indices, that is, each new index will include all of the information contained in the preceeding indices. 1. INTRODUCTION This first in a series of indices, published as a separate volume in the SeaWiFS Technical Report Series, covers information found in the following volumes: Vol. 1: S.B. Hooker, W.E. Esaias, G.C. Feldman, W.W. Gregg, and C.R. McClain, An Overview of Sea WiFS and Ocean Color. Vol. 2: W.W. Gregg, Analysis of Orbit Selection for SeaWiFS: Ascending vs. Descending Node. Voi. 3: C.R. McCiain, W.E. Esaias, W. Barnes, B. Guenther, D. Endres, S.B. Hooker, B.G. Mitchell, and R. Barnes, Calibration and Validation Plan for Sea WiFS. Vol. 4: C.R. McClain, E. Yeh, and G. Fu, An Analysis of GAC Sampling Algorithms: A Case Study. Vol. 5: J.L. Mueller and R.W. Austin, Ocean Optics Protocols for Sea WiFS Validation. This volume within the series serves as a reference, or guidebook, to the aforementioned volumes and consists of four main sections including a summary index to key words and phrases, a glossary of acronyms, a list of symbols used, and a bibliography of all references cited. Unless indicated otherwise, the index entries refer to some aspect of the Sea- WiFS sensor or project, for example, the mission overview index entry refers to an overview of the SeaWiFS mission. shown in bold face, followed by a pages identifier, which is always enclosed in parentheses: keyword, volume(pages). If an entry is the subject of an entire volume, the volume field is shown in slanted type with no page field: keyword, Vol. (number). Figures or tables that provide particularly important summary information are also indicated as separate entries in the pages field. In this case, the figure or table number is given with the page number it appears on.

An index entry is composed of a keyword followed by an entry field which directs the reader to the possible locations where a discussion of the keyword can be found. The entry field is normally made up of a volume identifier angles at solstice, 2(Fig. 5 p. 7, 10, 16). solar angle, 2(2, 16). spacecraft angle, 2(2, Fig. 6 p. 8, 16). relative angle, 2(2, Fig. 7 p. 9, 10, Fig. 10 p. 13, 16).

PERFORMING ORGANIZATION REPORT NUMBER 93B00016 10. SPONSORING/MONITORING AGENCY REPORT NUMBER TM-I04566, Vol. 6 12b. DISTRIBUTION CODE The Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor (SeaWiFS) is the follow--on ocean--color instrument to the Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS) which ceased operations in 1986, after an 8-year mission. SeaWiFS is expected to be launched in August 1992, on the SeaStar satellite, being built by Orbital Sciences Corporation (OSC). The SeaWiFS Project at the NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) has undertaken the responsibility of documenting all aspects of the mission, which is critical to the ocean-color and marine--science communities, in the form of NASA Technical Memoranda. This volume within the series serves as a reference, or guidebook, to the previous five volumes and consists of four main sections including an index to keywords and phrases, a list of all references cited, and lists of acronyms and symbols used. It is our intention to publish a summary index after every five volumes in the series, which will cover the topics published in all previous editions of the indices---that is, each new index will include all of the information contained in the preceding indices. 14.
