abstract: Advanced Clear Sky Processor for Ocean (ACSPO) is the NOAA Enterprise Sea Surface Temperature (SST) system. It is currently used to produce a consistent line of SST products from several VIIRS, AVHRR FRAC and GAC, MODIS, ABI, and AHI sensors, flown onboard polar (SNPP/NOAA-20, Metop-A/B, NOAA-16 to 19, Terra/Aqua) and geostationary (GOES-16, Himawari-8) satellites. Two products are produced from each platform/sensors, in a community-consensus Group for High-Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) Data Specification version 2 (GDS2) NetCDF format: L2P (in original swath projection) and L3U (gridded uncollated 0.02deg resolution). Two-week rotated buffers of each ACSPO product are available in Near-Real Time (NRT) via the NOAA Coast Watch site, along with two reprocessed (Reanalyses, or RAN1) products: from SNPP VIIRS (Mar 2012 - 15 Dec 2015) and from AVHRR GAC onboard multiple NOAA and Metop satellites (Aug 2002 - present).
purpose: The purpose of the AVHRR Clear-Sky Processor over Oceans is to produce clear-sky products over oceans from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) for the designated user community.

supplementalInformation: SST is used in many applications including monitoring of climate variability, operational weather and seasonal forecasting, military and defense operations, validation and/or forcing of the ocean and atmospheric models, ecosystem assessment, tourism, and fisheries. Satellite SST retrievals are assimilated into climate, mesoscale atmospheric, and sea surface numerical models, which form the cornerstone of the operational ocean forecasting systems. The quality and accuracy of ACSPO products is monitored in near-real time by the following systems: SST Quality Monitor (SQUAM), In situ SST Quality Monitor (iQuam), ACSPO Regional Monitor for SST (ARMS), and Monitoring of IR Clear-sky Radiances over Ocean for SST (MICROS 2).

Record: Three web pages have been set up to monitor the quality and accuracy of ACSPO products, in near-real time: 1) The MICROS (Monitoring of Infrared Clear-sky Radiances over Oceans for SST, http://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/sod/sst/micros/) monitors accuracy of CSRs by comparing with those simulated using the Community Radiative Transfer Model (CRTM) with Reynolds SST and NCEP/GFS upper air fields as input. 2) The SQUAM (SST Quality Monitor, http://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/sod/sst/squam/index.html) monitors long-term stability, and cross-platform consistency of the ACSPO SST product by comparing it with the global reference fields such as Reynolds SST, OSTIA, RTG, and ODYSSEA. It also monitors accuracy and precision of ACSPO SST with respect to the global in situ SSTs measured by drifting and moored buoys.

description: The application is data-driven from all AVHRR GAC and FRAC Level 1b data. HRPT and LAC data are also processed. The ACSPO Orbital Processor (OP) computes albedos and brightness temperatures at all pixels from calibration coefficients. A cloud detection algorithm determines clear pixels. Regression sea surface temperature and single-channel aerosol optical depth are computed at all pixels that are determined, using a land mask, to be over water. The clear-sky mask available in ACSPO is provided to identify clear-sky pixels, which define the domain of the ACSPO products. The ACSPO OP simulates clear-sky brightness temperatures (BT) with the Community Radiative Transfer Model (CRTM). These parameters are calculated on the NCEP 1 degree grid using NCEP GFS and Reynolds 1 degree weekly (v2) SST, and then bilinearly interpolated to every AVHRR pixel. These are currently used to improve the clear-sky mask in ACSPO and to perform quality control of AVHRR clear-sky radiances over ocean. In the near future, physical SST retrievals will be implemented. The predecessor of the ACSPO OP is the Clouds from AVHRR Extended (CLAVR-x) software. The structure of the AVHRR algorithm file used by the ACSPO OP has been inherited from CLAVR-x. The AVHRR algorithm file contains the instrument-specific parameters in standard algorithms that have been adopted into the CLAVR-x system. The ACSPO OP algorithm file contains daytime and nighttime operational SST coefficients, but does not use ice and land coefficients inherited from CLAVR-x. To allow quick cross-evaluation of ACSPO SST against the NESDIS heritage Main Unit Task (MUT) SST product, the ACSPO OP is initially set to use the same SST coefficients as the MUT system (calculated from heritage buoy match files). GAC granules will be created hourly and FRAC granules will be created every 10 minutes.

code: AVHRR-3
type: AVHRR-3
description: Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer-3 The AVHRR-3 is a six channel scanning radiometer providing 3 solar channels in the visible-near infrared region and 3 thermal infrared channels. The AVHRR-3 has two one-micrometer wide channels between 10.3 and 12.5 micrometers. This latest version of AVHRR was first carried on NOAA-15 launched in May 1998 and subsequently in all current NOAA and MetOp platforms. Measuring the same view, this array of diverse wavelengths, after processing, permits multi spectral analysis for more precisely defining hydrologic, oceanographic, and meteorological parameters. Comparison of data from two channels is often used to observe features or measure various environmental parameters. The three channels operating entirely within the infrared band are used to detect the heat radiation from and hence, the temperature of land, water, sea surfaces, and the clouds above them.
