Abstract

This dataset contains sea surface temperature data obtained from daily 1-km horizontal resolution SST estimates acquired from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory’s Multi-Scale High Resolution SST (JPL MUR SST) records via the Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC) at the NASA JPL, Pasadena, CA (http://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov) as well as in situ temperature from HOBO data loggers.

This dataset contains sea surface temperature data obtained from daily 1-km horizontal resolution SST estimates acquired from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory’s Multi-Scale High Resolution SST (JPL MUR SST) records via the Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC) at the NASA JPL, Pasadena, CA (http://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov) as well as in situ temperature from HOBO data loggers.

These data are reported in Baumann et al (2017) https://doi.org/10.1007/s00248-017-1096-6.
