Summary

Datasets used to describe water quality in UK waters and the Northeast Atlantic between 1997-2022 based on remote sensing products. Forel-Ule Index (FUI), a 21 class colour comparator, was used to classify water into different water optical types, derived from ocean colour satellite data, FUI can be also used as a proxy for water quality, as it relates to biological, chemical and physical properties of the water.
