Meteorological winter, December through February, also hit the record books as the warmest on record. The average temperature was 1.40 degrees F warmer than the 1991-2000 average. Sea surface temperatures were warmest on record for any month This year not only marked the warmest February on recor...
Sea surface temperature, SST: temperature of the top few meters of the ocean (subsurface bulk) as measured by ships and buoys. Satellite measurements of the uppermost layer have to be corrected for compatibility with the bulk temperature. Read full articleView PDF Tropical Cyclones and Hurricanes...
Sharp and rapid changes in the sea surface temperature (SST) associated with fronts and the diurnal cycle can drive changes in the atmospheric boundary-layer stability and circulation. Here we show how a one-dimensional surface ocean model forced with ei
This has prompted speculation of an acceleration in surface warming, or a stronger than expected influence from loss of aerosol induced cooling. Here we use a recent Green's function-based method to quantify the influence of sea surface temperature patterns on the 2023 global temperature anomaly, ...
The NOAA 1/4° daily Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature (or daily OISST) Climate Data Record (CDR) provides complete ocean temperature fields constructed by combining bias-adjusted observations from different platforms (satellites, ships, buoys) on a regular global grid, with gaps filled ...
BEIJING, May 10 (Xinhua) -- A team of Chinese scientists has discovered that the sea surface temperature anomalies in the tropical Indian Ocean can predict the magnitude of global dengue epidemics. The study published in the journal Science suggested that the climate indicator could enhance the fo...
The Sea Surface Temperature-Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) Climate Data Record (CDR) is one of three CDRs which combine to form the NOAA Ocean Surface Bundle (OSB) CDR. The resultant sea surface temperature (SST) data are produced through modeling the diurnal variability in combinat...
Archives of global sea surface temperature data are available through a number of resources. These provide information researchers can apply to extended climate studies. Some annual shifts in temperature are normal, as are larger cyclical patterns that may appear more infrequently. Researchers who want...
Sea surface temperature (SST) is crucial for understanding the physical characteristics and ecosystems of coastal seas. SST varies near the tidal flat, where exposure and flood recur according to the tidal cycle. However, the variability of SST near the tidal flat is poorly understood owing to di...
