These products contain global near real time (NRT) Level 2P skin Sea Surface Temperature (SST) derived from SLSTR-A on Copernicus Sentinel-3 at full-resolution swath (1 km at nadir) in GHRSST compliant NetCDF format. All SSTs from the Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR) series of instruments are SST skin measurements. For more details please see “What is SST?” on the GHRSST web pages. At night, the skin temperature is typically a few tenths of a degree cooler than the temperature measured by in situ systems; in the day, the skin can be considerably higher if strong diurnal warming is present. The SLSTRs are dual-view self-calibrating radiometers with SST retrieved from spectral bands at nominally 3.74, 10.85 and 12 µm (referred to as S7, S8 & S9). Corrections for water vapour atmospheric absorption are performed using a triple window at night, and a split window during the day as the 3.7 µm channel is not used due to solar contamination. All pixels in the dual-view part of the swath are viewed twice, via nadir and oblique views with different atmospheric path lengths, allowing for correction for aerosol effects. Consequently, there are four possible retrieved SSTs, referred to as N2 (nadir-only 11 µm and 12 µm), N3 (nadir-only 3.7 µm, 11 µm and 12 µm), D2 (dual-view 11 µm and 12 µm) and D3 (dual-view 3.7 µm, 11 µm and 12 µm). The L2P file contains the best SST available for each pixel and flags are included to identify which retrieval is used. If the observation is in the nadir-only / single-view part of swath then "sst_algorithm_types" is N2 or N3, and if the observation is in the dual-view part of swath then "sst_algorithm_types" is D2 or D3. For D2 or D3 pixels it is possible to generate their N2 or N3 equivalent by subtracting the value in the "dual_nadir_sst_difference" field. Users are advised to use only QL = 5 dual-view SSTs for reference sensor applications and to use single-view (all quality levels) and quality level 3 and 4 dual-view data only for other qualitative analysis. Users are reminded to apply the SSES bias adjustments as SLSTR-B is harmonised to SLSTR-A through SSES. Users can consider using the "theoretical_uncertainty" for weighting observations rather than the simple SSES standard deviation values. Primary access to data is via the EUMETSAT Data Store (linked below). Other access methods can be found in the EUMETSAT Product Navigator https://navigator.eumetsat.int/product/EO:EUM:DAT:SENTINEL-3:SL_2_WST___NRT?query=slstr&results=22&s=advanced. Please also read the EUMETSAT SLSTR Product Notices (linked below) as they provide a lot of useful information. All products currently contain SLSTRA-MAR-L2P-v1.0 as the GHRSST Collection ID in the file metadata, which will be revised in a future release.

This dataset is produced by the Ocean and Sea Ice Satellite Application Facility (OSI SAF) from the Spinning Enhanced Visible and InfraRed Imager (SEVIRI) instrument onboard the Meteosat Second Generation (MSG-1), Meteosat-8 satellite (launched on 28 August 2002). The dataset covers the Indian Ocean region with latitude of 60S-60N and longitude of 135W-15W. Level-3C SST, in the NetCDF format recommended by Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST), is identical to Level-2P GHRSST products, 3 refers to gridded products and C to the fact that hourly products result from compositing 15 minutes (MSG) or 30 minutes (GOES-E) data. The European Organization for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT), OSI SAF is producing SST products in near real time from MSG/SEVIRI. SEVIRI level 1.5 data are acquired at Meteo-France/Centre de Meteorologie Spatiale (CMS) through the EUMETSAT/EUMETCAST system. SST is retrieved from the SEVIRI infrared channels (10.8 and 12.0 micrometer) using a multispectral algorithm. Atmospheric profiles of water vapor and temperature from a numerical weather prediction model, together with a radiatiave transfer model, are used to correct the multispectral algorithm for regional and seasonal biases due to changing atmospheric conditions. Every 15 minutes slot is processed at full satellite resolution. The operational products are then produced by remapping over a 0.05-degree regular grid (60S-60N and 135W-15W) SST fields obtained by aggregating all 15-minute SST data available in one-hour time, and the priority being given to the value the closest in time to the product nominal hour. The product format is compliant with the GHRSST Data Specification (GDS) version 2. Version Description:

A global 1 km Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) Level 2P dataset based on multi-channel sea surface temperature (SST) retrievals generated in real-time from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) on the European Meteorological Operational-B (MetOp-B) satellite (launched 17 Sep 2012). The European Organization for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT), Ocean and Sea Ice Satellite Application Facility (OSI SAF) is producing SST products in near real time from Metop/AVHRR. Global AVHRR level 1b data are acquired at Meteo-France/Centre de Meteorologie Spatiale (CMS) through the EUMETSAT/EUMETCAST system. SST is retrieved from the AVHRR infrared channels (3.7, 10.8 and 12.0 micrometer) using a multispectral algorithm. Atmospheric profiles of water vapor and temperature from a numerical weather prediction model, together with a radiatiave transfer model, are used to correct the multispectral algorithm for regional and seasonal biases due to changing atmospheric conditions. This product is delivered at full resolution in satellite projection as metagranule corresponding to 3 minutes of acquisition. The product format is compliant with the GHRSST Data Specification (GDS) version 2. Version Description:
