NOAA Coral Reef Watch Operational Near-real-time Twice-weekly Global 50 km Satellite Coral Bleaching Thermal Stress Monitoring Product Suite from 2006-12-30 to 2007-12-31 (NODC Accession 0075822)

NOAA's polar-orbiting satellites measure SST around the globe in near-real-time, and Coral Reef Watch produces a suite of products derived from this set of satellite SST and uses them to pinpoint areas around the world where corals are at risk for bleaching. This is a suite of operational products produced at 0.5 degree (approximately 50 km) spatial resolution twice-weekly. The products include nighttime sea surface temperature, nighttime sea surface temperature anomaly, coral bleaching HotSpots, and Degree Heating Weeks for the global oceans.

美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration，NOAA）的极轨卫星可近实时地在全球范围内监测海表温度（Sea Surface Temperature, SST）。珊瑚礁监测计划（Coral Reef Watch）基于该卫星海表温度数据集生成一系列衍生产品，并依托这些产品精准定位全球范围内珊瑚存在白化风险的海域。该系列产品为空间分辨率0.5度（约50千米）的业务化产品，更新频率为每周两次，涵盖全球海洋的夜间海表温度、夜间海表温度距平、珊瑚白化热斑以及升温度日周（Degree Heating Weeks）四类产品。
