NOAA Optimum Interpolation (OI) SST V2

Published by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: April 12, 2026 at 03:41 AM | Dataset Last Updated: January 29, 2023 at 12:00 AM
The optimum interpolation (OI) sea surface temperature (SST) analysis is produced weekly on a one-degree grid. The analysis uses in situ and satellite SST's plus SST's simulated by sea-ice cover. Before the analysis is computed, the satellite data is adjusted for biases using the method of Reynolds (1988) and Reynolds and Marsico (1993). Monthly data is calculated by interpolating weekly data to daily and then producing monthly values.
