OW NOAA AVHRR-GAC Sea-Surface Temperature

Metadata Updated: September 22, 2023

The dataset contains satellite-derived sea-surface temperature measurements collected by means of the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer - Global Area Coverage (AVHRR-GAC) sensor onboard the NOAA polar orbiting satellite constellation. The data is collected daily, and is available at 3-day, weekly and monthly intervals at a spatial resolution of 0.1. The geographic coverage is global, and the temporal coverage ranges from 2003-2016.
