GHRSST VIIRS L2P JPL reprocessing underway, granule delay expected
2019-11-01
The GHRSST VIIRS L2P dataset (https://doi.org/10.5067/GHVRS-2PN16) produced by NASA (JPL/OBPG/RSMAS) is undergoing a reprocessing campaign (https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/forum/oceancolor/topic_show.pl?pid=48991). The availability of new reprocessed VIIRS L2P granules (version 2016.2) from the PO.DAAC is delayed until final modifications to the L2P processing software are implemented. We will inform

GHRSST Level 4 MUR 0.25deg Global Foundation Sea Surface Temperature Analysis (v4.2) Dataset Release
October 31, 2019
The Multiscale Ultrahigh Resolution (MUR) 1km time series has recently been refactored to add a 0.25 decimal degree spatial resolution analysis known as the GHRSST Level 4 MUR 0.25deg Global Foundation Sea Surface Temperature Analysis v4.2 (MUR25) dataset (https://doi.org/10.5067/GHM25-4FJ42). The MUR25 dataset utilizes the same analysis methodology and input satellite and in situ SST sources (Chin et al., 2017), but provides a much more compact data volume and smoother feature resolution than the original MUR dataset. An aim of introducing MUR25, in addition to the MUR dataset, is to facilitate long-term studies of global SST by climate scientists, ocean and atmospheric modelers, and operators of large-scale environmental monitoring. MUR25 has been incorporated into the CEOS COVERAGE dataset suite, as well as the GHRSST Level 4 dataset climate inter-comparison study. This dataset also contains an SST anomaly field derived from a MUR25 climatology. This anomaly field could facilitate studies of the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), as well as longer climate scale trends.
