This global 5km Sea Surface Temperature (SST) Anomaly product, displays the difference between today's SST and the long-term average. The scale goes from -5 to +5 °C. Positive numbers mean the temperature is warmer than average; negative means cooler than average.
Graphical depiction of Sea Surface Temperature gridded products. Contour charts are used to depict both global and regional SST values in various grid spacing.
The operational night-only SST analysis is at a resolution of 50 km and is used to produce the SST anomaly charts.
The AVHRR-and-VIIRS CoastWatch SST products supply users with operational satellite data, processed using TeraScan software and CoastWatch utilities.
