A Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) gap-free (L4) Sea Surface Temperature (SST) analysis produced daily on an operational basis by the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) using an optimal interpolation (OI) approach on a global 0.05 degree grid. Whereas along swath observation data essentially represent the skin or sub-skin SST, the L4 SST product is defined to represent the foundation (SSTfnd). SSTfnd is defined within GHRSST as the temperature at the base of the diurnal thermocline. It is so named because it represents the foundation temperature on which the diurnal thermocline develops during the day. SSTfnd changes only gradually along with the upper layer of the ocean, and by definition it is independent of skin SST fluctuations due to wind- and radiation-dependent diurnal stratification or skin layer response. SSTfnd corresponds to the temperature of the upper mixed layer which is the part of the ocean represented by the top-most layer of grid cells in most numerical ocean models. It is never observed directly by satellites, but it comes closest to being detected by infrared and microwave radiometers during the night, when the previous day's diurnal stratification can be assumed to have decayed. The processing combines night-time GHRSST L2P skin and subskin SST observations from several satellites. The data is inter-calibrated and bias corrected before being merged and interpolated using an optimal interpolation scheme to provide daily gap-free fields. The optimal interpolation scheme uses the previous days analysis as a background field. An ice field from the EUMETSAT OSI-SAF is used to mask out areas with ice.

This dataset provide a times series of daily multi-sensor composite fields of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) foundation at high resolution (HR) on a 0.10 x 0.10 degree grid (approximately 10 x 10 km) for the Global Ocean, every 24 hours. Whereas along swath observation data essentially represent the skin or sub-skin SST, the L3S SST product is defined to represent the SST foundation (SSTfnd). SSTfnd is defined within GHRSST as the temperature at the base of the diurnal thermocline. It is so named because it represents the foundation temperature on which the diurnal thermocline develops during the day. SSTfnd changes only gradually along with the upper layer of the ocean, and by definition it is independent of skin SST fluctuations due to wind- and radiation-dependent diurnal stratification or skin layer response. It is therefore updated at intervals of 24 hrs. SSTfnd corresponds to the temperature of the upper mixed layer which is the part of the ocean represented by the top-most layer of grid cells in most numerical ocean models. It is never observed directly by satellites, but it comes closest to being detected by infrared and microwave radiometers during the night, when the previous day's diurnal stratification can be assumed to have decayed. The processing combines the observations of multiple polar orbiting and geostationary satellites, embedding infrared of microwave radiometers. All these sources are intercalibrated with each other before merging. A ranking procedure is used to select the best sensor observation for each grid point. This dataset is generated daily within a 24 delay and is therefore suitable for assimilation into operational models. It is produced in the frame of Copernicus Marine Service and the data available through various tools and protocols with a simple user registration from this service (product identifier: SST_GLO_SST_L3S_NRT_OBSERVATIONS_010_010) at: https://data.marine.copernicus.eu/product/SST_GLO_SST_L3S_NRT_OBSERVATIONS_010_010

This dataset provide a times series of daily multi-sensor composite fields of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) foundation at ultra high resolution (UHR) on a 0.02 x 0.02 degree grid (approximately 2 x 2 km) for the North-East Atlantic (European North West shelf, Iberia, Bay of Biscay, Irish Sea down to Canary upwelling), every 24 hours.

This dataset provide a times series of daily mean fields of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) foundation at high resolution (UHR) on a 0.10 x 0.10 degree grid (approximately 10 x 10 km) for the Global Ocean, every 24 hours. An Optimal interpolation (OI) technique is used to combine coincident swath measures of SST from different types satellite sensors and to fill gaps where no observations are available or obstructed by clouds. This multi-sensor compositing and interpolation process categorizes this dataset as a Level 4 product. Each daily mean field is available the next day before 12:00. Whereas along swath observation data essentially represent the skin or sub-skin SST, the L4 SST product is defined to represent the SST foundation (SSTfnd).
