Pathfinder Sea Surface Temperature (SST) Objective Analysis Images and raw data, 1988-1994

Sea surface temperature data, in netCDF format, from NOAA Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data, processed in Hobart by the CMR Remote Sensing Facility. The dataset includes both the Pathfinder SST daily images, and the optimal estimates (and error fields) made from them, at 10-day intervals. Data starts from Jan. 1988, and is calculated using an objective analysis procedure written in Matlab. The images cover the Australian continent and surrounding oceans. The data are contained on 7 CDROMs in Hobart.

本数据集为网络通用数据格式（netCDF）存储的海表温度（Sea Surface Temperature, SST）数据，源自美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA）先进甚高分辨率辐射计（Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer, AVHRR）的观测资料，由CMR遥感实验室（CMR Remote Sensing Facility）在澳大利亚霍巴特完成处理。数据集包含Pathfinder SST每日影像，以及基于该影像生成的每10天间隔的最优估计值（含误差场）。数据起始时间为1988年1月，采用Matlab编写的客观分析程序计算得到。影像覆盖范围涵盖澳大利亚大陆及其周边海域，全部数据存储于霍巴特地区的7张CD-ROM光盘中。
