Abstract:ABSTRACT. A simple system for daily cloud free sea surface temperature (SST) composition based on thermal AVHRR and microwave TMI data is presented in this paper. Barnes’ objective analysis is applied as an interpolator to merge these two data sources, which have different spatial and temporal resolutions in a daily SST composition and in a regular grid product. Three comparisons were carried out as follows. First, in situ SST (daily average) measurements from eleven PIRATA’s (Prediction and Research Moored Ar… Show more
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.
