| Persistent ID | PODAAC-GHK10-41N01 |
| Short Name | NAVO-L4HR1m-GLOB-K10_SST |
| Description | A Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) Level 4 sea surface temperature analysis produced daily on an operational basis at the Naval Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO) on a global 0.1 degree grid. The K10 L4 sea surface temperature analysis uses SST observations from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR), the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for EOS (AMSR-E), and the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) Imager. The age, reliability, and resolution of the data are used in the weighted average with the analysis tuned to represent SST at 1 meter depth. AVHRR Pathfinder 9km climatology is used when no new satellite SST retrievals are available after 34 days. |

| Platform/Sensor | AQUA / Platform Name: Earth Observing System, AQUA (AQUA) Orbit Period: 98.8 minutes Inclination Angle: 98 degrees Ascending Node: - AMSR-E SENSOR Name: Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-EOS (AMSR-E) Swath Width: 1445 km Description: The Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for EOS (AMSR-E) is a twelve-channel, six-frequency, total power passive-microwave radiometer system. GOES-11 / Platform Name: Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite 11 (GOES-11) Orbit Period: -999 minutes Inclination Angle: -999 degrees Ascending Node: - GOES-11 Imager SENSOR Name: Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite 11-Imager (GOES-11 Imager) Swath Width: - km Description: The GOES Imager is a multi-channel instrument designed to sense radiant and solar-reflected energy from sampled areas of the Earth. The multi-element spectral channels simultaneously sweep east-west and west-east along a north-to-south path by means of a two-axis mirror scan system. METOP-A / Platform Name: Meteorological Operational Satellite - A (METOP-A) Orbit Period: 101.3 minutes Inclination Angle: 98.7 degrees Ascending Node: - AVHRR-3 SENSOR Name: Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer-3 (AVHRR-3) Swath Width: 2400 km Description: The AVHRR is a radiation-detection imager that can be used for remotely determining cloud cover and the surface temperature. Note that the term surface can mean the surface of the Earth, the upper surfaces of clouds, or the surface of a body of water. NOAA-18 / Platform Name: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration-18 (NOAA-18) Orbit Period: 102.12 minutes Inclination Angle: 98.74 degrees Ascending Node: - AVHRR-3 SENSOR Name: Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer-3 (AVHRR-3) Swath Width: 2400 km Description: The AVHRR is a radiation-detection imager that can be used for remotely determining cloud cover and the surface temperature. Note that the term surface can mean the surface of the Earth, the upper surfaces of clouds, or the surface of a body of water. NOAA-19 / Platform Name: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration-19 (NOAA-19) Orbit Period: 102 minutes Inclination Angle: 99 degrees Ascending Node: - AVHRR-3 SENSOR Name: Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer-3 (AVHRR-3) Swath Width: 2400 km Description: The AVHRR is a radiation-detection imager that can be used for remotely determining cloud cover and the surface temperature. Note that the term surface can mean the surface of the Earth, the upper surfaces of clouds, or the surface of a body of water. |
