EUMETSAT OSI SAF Metop-A Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer Sea Surface Temperature

Level 2 skin Sea Surface Temperature derived from IASI on Metop, global and provided in full-resolution swath (12 km at nadir to 40 km), in GHRSST compliant netCDF format.

SST is retrieved using a multispectral 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.
