Information about the figures The web page shows the sea surface temperature (SST) and
anomalies derived
from infrared measurements from the polar orbiting satellites. One
interpolated field is constructed daily. Only nighttime SST
observations
are used for the interpolation because these are more representative of
the temperature in the upper meters of the water column. One image per day
is shown for the last 30 days. |

Satellite observations The observations of the sea surface temperature are based upon observations from up to 10 different satellites, measuring in Infrared and Microwave wavelengths. The observations are obtained from the Ocean and Sea Ice SAF project (www.osi-saf.org) and from Group on High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (www.ghrsst.org). The satellites products are listed below:
