Bias Adjustment of AVHRR SST and Its Impacts on Two SST Analyses
AbstractSea surface temperature (SST) observations from satellite-based Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) instrument exhibit biases. Adjustments necessary for removing the AVHRR biases have been studied by progressive experiments. These experiments show that the biases are sensitive to various parameters, including the length of the ...

Comparison of Himawari-8 AHI SST with Shipboard Skin SST Measurements in the Australian Region
Sea surface temperature (SST) measurements from the geostationary satellite Himawari-8 Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) are compared with in situ skin SSTs derived from shipboard Infrared SST Autonomous Radiometers (ISAR) in the Australian region. The mean

On the use of composite analyses to form physical hypotheses: An example from heat wave – SST associations [PDF]
This paper highlights some caveats in using composite analyses to form physical hypotheses on the associations between environmental variables. This is illustrated using a specific example, namely the apparent links between heat waves (HWs) and sea ...

Comparison of GHRSST SST Analysis in the Arctic Ocean and Alaskan Coastal Waters Using Saildrones
There is high demand for complete satellite SST maps (or L4 SST analyses) of the Arctic regions to monitor the rapid environmental changes occurring at high latitudes.

The Role of Buoy and Argo Observations in Two SST Analyses in the Global and Tropical Pacific Oceans [PDF]
The relative roles of buoy and Argo observations in two sea surface temperature (SST) analyses are studied in the global ocean and tropical Pacific Ocean over 2000–16 using monthly Extended Reconstructed SST version 5 (ERSSTv5) and Daily Optimum ...

Harmonization of Space-Borne Infra-Red Sensors Measuring Sea Surface Temperature [PDF]
Sea surface temperature (SST) is observed by a constellation of sensors, and SST retrievals are commonly combined into gridded SST analyses and climate data records (CDRs).

Testing the validity of regional detail in global analyses of sea surface temperature – the case of Chinese coastal waters [PDF]
We have designed a method for testing the quality of multidecadal analyses of sea surface temperature (SST) in regional seas by using a set of high-quality local SST observations.

Relationships of upper tropospheric water vapor, clouds and SST: MLS observations, ECMWF analyses and GCM simulations [PDF]
The relationships of upper tropospheric water vapor (UTWV), cloud ice and sea surface temperature (SST) are examined in the annual cycles of ECMWF analyses and simulations from 15 atmosphere‐ocean coupled models which were contributed to the IPCC AR4. The results are compared with the observed relationships based on UTWV and cloud ice measurements from

Improved analyses of changes and uncertainties in sea surface temperature measured in situ sice the mid-nineteenth century: The HadSST2 dataset [PDF]
A new flexible gridded dataset of sea surface temperature (SST) since 1850 is presented and its uncertainties are quantified. This analysis [the Second Hadley Centre Sea Surface Temperature dataset (HadSST2)] is based on data contained within the ...
