Level 3 hourly sub-skin Sea Surface Temperature derived from Meteosat at 0° longitude, covering 60S-60N and 60W-60E and re-projected on a 0.05° regular grid, in GHRSST compliant netCDF format. The satellite input data has successively come from Meteosat level 1 data processed at EUMETSAT. SST is retrieved from SEVIRI using a multi-spectral algorithm and a cloud mask. Atmospheric profiles of water vapor and temperature from a numerical weather prediction model, Sea Surface Temperature from an analysis, together with a radiative transfer model, are used to correct the multispectral algorithm for regional and seasonal biases due to changing atmospheric conditions.The quality of the products is monitored regularly by daily comparison of the satellite estimates against buoy measurements. The product format is compliant with the GHRSST Data Specification (GDS) version 2. Users are advised to use data only with quality levels 3, 4 and 5.

NOAA STAR produces two lines of gridded 0.02deg super-collated L3S LEO datasets from Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellites, one from the NOAA afternoon JPSS (L3S_LEO_PM) and the other from the EUMETSAT mid-morning Metop-FG (L3S_LEO_AM). The L3S_LEO_PM is derived from JPSS satellites (in v2.80, NPP and N20) with VIIRS sensor onboard (0.75km/nadir). The L3S_LEO_PM dataset is produced by aggregating L3U datasets from two JPSS satellites ( https://doi.org/10.5067/GHVRS-3UO28 and https://doi.org/10.5067/GHV20-3UO28 ) and covers from Feb 2012-present. The L3S-LEO-PM data are reported in two files per 24hr interval, one daytime and one nighttime (nominal JPSS local equator crossing times around 01:30/13:30). Data is in NetCDF4 format, compliant with the GHRSST Data Specification version 2 (GDS2). The Near-Real Time (NRT) L3S-LEO data are archived at PO.DAAC with approximately 6 hours latency and then replaced by the Delayed Mode files about 2 months later, with identical file names. In addition to SST, the L3S-LEO files report the location and intensity of thermal fronts. The NRT/DM data are seamlessly stitched with the full-mission Reanalysis (RAN). The ACSPO L3S products are monitored and validated against in situ data in the NOAA iQuam system ( https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/socd/sst/iquam ) in the NOAA SQUAM system ( https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/socd/sst/squam ). Quality of SST imagery, clear-sky mask and thermal fronts is evaluated in the NOAA ARMS system ( https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/socd/sst/arms ). NOAA plans to include data from other afternoon platforms and sensors, such as N21 and Aqua MODIS, into the future releases of the L3S_LEO_PM.
