Eddies and Fields Based on Sea Surface Temperature in the Australian Region

The CSIRO Marine Research Remote Sensing facility automatically receives and archives data from the USA's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) satellites. Up to 18 passes per day are tracked to receive data. The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data is received on the High Resolution Picture Transmission (HRPT) signal. Within an hour of reception, these data are automatically processed into full resolution sea surface temperature (SST) images. This set of data layers have been designed to show regions of core homogeneity, heterogeneity, eddy activity and frontal activity by CSIRO for the National Oceans Office, for the purposes of marine mapping, as part of an ongoing commitment to natural resource planning and management through the 'National Marine Bioregionalisation' project.

澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织（CSIRO）海洋研究遥感设施可自动接收并归档来自美国国家海洋和大气管理局（NOAA）卫星的观测数据。该设施每日可跟踪最多18次卫星过境以获取数据。其通过高分辨率图像传输（HRPT）信号接收高级甚高分辨率辐射计（AVHRR）观测数据。数据接收后一小时内，这些观测数据将被自动处理为全分辨率海表温度（SST）影像。这套数据图层由CSIRO为国家海洋办公室开发，用于展示核心均一区、非均一区、涡旋活动与锋面活动区域，以服务于海洋制图工作，同时作为"国家海洋生物区域化（National Marine Bioregionalisation）"项目的组成部分，践行对自然资源规划与管理的长期投入。
