ESA Sea Surface Temperature Climate Change Initiative (SST_cci): Climatology Climate Data Record, version 2.2
Abstract
This v2.2 SST_cci Climatology Data Record (CDR) consists of daily climatological mean sea surface temperature on a global 0.05 degree latitude-longitude grid, derived from the SST CCI analysis data for the period 1982 to 2010 (29 years). This climatology includes the post-hoc dust corrections from Merchant and Embury (2020) https://doi.org/10.3390/rs12162554.
The changes from climatology v2.1 are:
* Inclusion of post-hoc dust corrections from Merchant and Embury (2020) reduces biases in affected regions (tropical Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean, Red, and Arabian Seas).
* Improved compliance with CF Conventions.
