NOAA Climate Data Record (CDR) of Sea Surface Temperature - WHOI, Version 2
Sea Surface Temperature - WHOI; SeaFlux OSB CDR: SST
The NOAA Ocean Surface Bundle (OSB) Climate Data Record (CDR) consist of three parts: sea surface temperature, near-surface atmospheric properties, and heat fluxes. This portion of the OSB CDR is the NOAA Climate Data Record (CDR) of Sea Surface Temperature - WHOI. The SST data are found through modeling the diurnal variability in combination with AVHRR observations of sea surface temperature. The data cover a time period from January 1988 to present at a 3-hourly, quarter-degree resolution.
