GHRSST Level 4 mw_ir_rt_OI Global Foundation Sea Surface Temperature analysis (realtime version)
(REMSS-L4HRfnd-GLOB-mw_ir_rt_OI)DOI | 10.5067/GHMWR-4FR01 |
Short Name | REMSS-L4HRfnd-GLOB-mw_ir_rt_OI |
Description | A Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) global Level 4 sea surface temperature analysis produced daily on a 0.81 degree grid at Remote Sensing Systems in realtime. This product uses optimal interpolation (OI) from both microwave (MW) sensors including the NASA Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-EOS (AMSRE), and the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Microwave Imager (TMI), and infrared (IR) sensors such as the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the NASA Aqua platform. The through-cloud capabilities of microwave radiometers provide a valuable picture of global sea surface temperature (SST) while infrared radiometers (i.e., MODIS) have a higher spatial resolution. This analysis does not use any in situ SST data such as drifting buoy SST. The product represents the realtime version of mw_ir_OI and is produced and made available as soon as possible, but users should use mw_ir_OI for the period of interest if available. |
