Sea surface temperature from AVHRR for 2008-12-09 (NCEI Accession 0050222)

browse graphicGraphic not available.
The production of these AVHRR L2P data is a NEODAAS activity in collaboration with the UK National Centre for Ocean Forecasting (NCOF). NEODAAS-Dundee acquires approx. 15 AVHRR HRPT passes per day over NW Europe and Arctic, each approx. 15 minutes duration. These are immediately transferred to NEODAAS-Plymouth where they are processed into SST products and converted to L2P.
