    • NOAA Optimum Interpolation (OI) SST V2

    Metadata Updated: October 19, 2024

    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.
