*Date/Time of Initial Impact:*February 15, 2011 1358 UTC**** *Date/Time of Expected End:*Until further notice**** *Length of Outage:*TBD*** **Details/Specifics of Change:*No more ocean color data from SeaWiFS due to the increasing unreliability of the SeaWiFS data flow, which is a decision from GeoEye after nearly two months of intensive research and numerous attempts at communication with the spacecraft. CoastWatch users can continue to use MODIS/Aqua-derived and MERIS/Envisat-derived ocean color products. ***
