The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

Term: SLSTR
Description: Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer
Definition: The Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR) will measure global sea- and land-surface temperatures every day to an accuracy of better than 0.3 K. Continuing the legacy of Envisat’s Advanced Along Track Scanning Radiometer, it maintains a dual-view along-track-scanning approach and delivers measurements at a spatial resolution of 500 m for visible/near-infrared and short-wavelength infrared channels and at 1 km for the thermal infrared channels.

Carrying four instruments that work in synergy, Sentinel-3 is arguably the most complex of all the Sentinel missions.
