These sea surface temperature maps are based on observations by the Moderate Resolution ... driving surface waters away from the coast, and allowing cold water from deeper in the ocean to well up to ...

For the first time this winter, we’ve observed Atlantic water ... temperature (around 28.4F) is lower than that of freshwater, but that means we are not far from seeing a slushy ocean along ...

In addition to controlling physical properties, the variation in space and time of temperature and salinity are also important water mass tracers that can be used to map the ocean circulation.

The maps display interpolated (gap-free) analyses of the temperature of the uppermost metre of the ocean, based on observations from both in-water instruments and satellites, and are updated either ...

Sea surface temperature analysis maps are available by region and by week or month ... based on observations from both in-water instruments and satellites. As observations are not always available ...

These maps compare temperatures in a given month to the long ... areas that used to be covered with ice all summer are now open water. Sea surface temperature anomalies have practical as well as ...
