Description
Summary:Credit Australia’s Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) is enabled by the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS). It is operated by a consortium of institutions as an unincorporated joint venture, with the University of Tasmania as Lead Agent. Credit Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) Credit CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere This is a single sensor, multiple swath SSTskin product for a single day-time period, derived using observations from the VIIRS instrument on the Suomi-NPP satellite. It is provided as a 0.02deg x 0.02deg cylindrical equidistant projected map over the region 70°E to 170°W, 20°N to 70°S. Only day time passes are included in the product. The quality level for each pixel was remapped using the original ACSPO VIIRS L3U quality levels and Sensor Specific Error Statistics (SSES), as described in Griffin et al. (2017) Appendix at http://imos.org.au/facilities/srs/sstproducts/sstdata0/sstdata-references/, before compositing single swaths from the sensor. Each grid cell contains the 1 day average of all the highest available quality SSTs that overlap with that cell, weighted by the area of overlap. Refer to the IMOS SST products web page at http://imos.org.au/sstproducts.html for further information.
