The precision of sea surface temperature (SST) from remote sensing data is essential to recognize SST fluctuations prompted by extreme weather conditions due to global climate warming, such as tropical cyclones (TCs). Since 1981 the active remote sensing of satellite-based SST measurements has been around and proliferating to date in Indonesia. However, there has not been much research on the validation of several remote sensing datasets in Indonesia's seas that has limited coverage of buoy observations. Moreover, no studies correspond to which data are the most precise in describing SST fluctuations in tropical storms. In this study, six remote sensing/satellite (Operational Sea Surface Temperature and Sea Ice Analysis (OSTIA), Regional Australian Multi-Sensor SST Analysis (RAMSSA), Global Australian Multi-Sensor SST Analysis (GAMSA), Microwave Infrared Optimally Interpolated (MWIROI), Multi-scale Ultra-high Resolution (MUR), and K10) data are validated and compared to analyze SST fluctuations in TC as a case study. The validation method uses the Haversine distance formula to reach the highest quality iQuam data with satellite data. The comparison analysis is performed by plotting the SST and wind slop in a TC area. Based on the validation, The OSTIA, RAMSSA, GAMSSA, and MWIROI datasets ranked in the top 4 of the smallest RMSEs with values < 0.5. Moreover, in the SST and wind slop in a TC area, TC affects SST cooling as detected in the MUR and K10 datasets where there is a decrease of > 2 ºC. In the MWIROI, the decline is more noticeable significant > 3 ºC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
