The data are neither interpolated nor variance adjusted.\r\n\r\nThe observations that make up this dataset are taken from the International Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere DataSet, ICOADS (see http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/coads/), until 1997 and from the NCEP GTS  archive thereafter. Individual observations must first pass a series of quality checks (track check, reality check, positional check, climatology check, buddy check, duplicate check). The quality-checked observations in each  1degree longitude X 1degree latitude X pentad gridbox are then averaged using a winsorised average. The pentad climatology is then subtracted from these pentad superobs and the resulting anomalies are averaged to 5degree X 5degree X monthly resolution. The data are then bias-corrected for the use of buckets in the period 1850-1941.","keywords":"Met Office, Hadley, SST,ocean,ICOADS, temperature","discoveryKeywords":[1138],"publicationState":"published","dataPublishedTime":"2008-12-10T02:34:06","doiPublishedTime":null,"member":["https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/observations/862/?format=json"],"identifier_set":["https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/583/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/584/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/10363/?format=json"],"responsiblepartyinfo_set":["https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/2800/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/2805/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/2801/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/2802/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/2803/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/2799/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/42786/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/42787/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/54643/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/168755/?format=json"]}
