GHRSST Level 4 MUR Global Foundation Sea Surface Temperature Analysis for 2016-05-10 (NCEI Accession 0153663)

A Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) Level 4 sea surface temperature analysis produced as a retrospective dataset (four day latency) at the JPL Physical Oceanography DAAC using wavelets as basis functions in an optimal interpolation approach on a global 0.011 degree grid. The version 4 Multiscale Ultrahigh Resolution (MUR) L4 analysis is based upon nighttime GHRSST L2P skin and subskin SST observations from several instruments including the NASA Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-EOS (AMSRE), the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the NASA Aqua and Terra platforms, the US Navy microwave WindSat radiometer and in situ SST observations from the NOAA iQuam project. The ice concentration data are from the archives at the EUMETSAT Ocean and Sea Ice Satellite Application Facility (OSI SAF) High Latitude Processing Center and are also used for an improved SST parameterization for the high-latitudes.
This data set is funded by the NASA MEaSUREs program (http://earthdata.nasa.gov/our-community/community-data-system-programs/measures-projects), and created by a team led by Dr. Toshio Chin from JPL.

本数据集为高分辨率海表温度工作组（GHRSST）的四级海表温度分析产品，由美国喷气推进实验室（JPL）物理海洋学数据存档与分发中心生成，为回溯式数据集，延迟时长为4天，采用以小波为基函数的最优插值方法，在全球0.011度网格上完成分析计算。本第四版多尺度超高分辨率（MUR）四级分析产品的数据源涵盖多类仪器获取的夜间GHRSST L2P表皮与次表皮海表温度观测数据，包括美国国家航空航天局（NASA）先进微波扫描辐射计-地球观测系统（AMSRE）、搭载于NASA Aqua与Terra平台的中分辨率成像光谱仪（MODIS）、美国海军微波WindSat辐射计，以及美国国家海洋和大气管理局（NOAA）iQuam项目获取的原位海表温度观测数据。海冰密集度数据源自欧洲气象卫星应用组织（EUMETSAT）海洋与海冰卫星应用设施（OSI SAF）高纬度处理中心的存档数据，该数据同时被用于优化高纬度区域的海表温度参数化方案。
