Water quality and temperature for Lake Malawi, Lake Malombe and Lake Chilwa, derived from MERIS FR images for 2010-2011 using the proprietary WISP algorithm. These parameters are: - Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) - Total Suspended Matter (TSM) - Colored Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM) - Kd averaged over the spectrum (KDP) The results were resampled to a spatial resolution of 300m. Selected Water Surface Temperature (SST) data is also included here as an additional product. This dataset is one of the products produced under the 2008-2012 World Bank (WBG) European Space Agency (ESA) partnership, and is published in the partnership report: Earth Observation for Sustainable Development, June 2013
