L3C hourly Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) data record release 1 - MSG
Abstract:
Subskin Sea Surface Temperature derived from the imager SEVIRI on MSG satellites (Meteosat-8 and Meteosat-9). SST is retrieved from SEVIRI infrared channels (10.8 and 12.0 µm) using a nonlinear algorithm and the cloud mask from CM SAF. NWP outputs (temperature and humidity profiles), OSTIA Sea Surface Temperature re-analysis and analysis, together with a radiatiave transfer model (RTTOV), are used to correct the multispectral algorithm for regional and seasonal biases due to changing atmospheric conditions. The product is hourly and remapped onto a regular cylindrical equidistant latitude/longitude grid at 0.05° resolution and extends from 60°S to 60°N and 60°W to 60°E. The product format is compliant with the Data Specification (GDS) version 2 from the Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperatures (GHRSST).
