Ocean Color Wheel
Ocean Color Wheel (PDF, 48.0 MB)
Like water, phytoplankton absorbs and scatters sunlight. The ocean's color depends on the type of phytoplankton suspended in seawater. What color is your ocean? This printable PDF will let you explore phytoplankton diversity and ocean color. When assembled, the wheel has a window with information about specific plankton, a section showing the color of the ocean when these plankton are present, and a QR code that can be scanned for more information.
