BLUElink Regional Australian Multi-Sensor SST Analysis (RAMSSA), daily, 9 km resolution for 2009-11-01 (NCEI Accession 0060145)
As part of the BLUElink> Ocean Forecasting Australia project (http://www.bom.gov.au/oceanography/projects/BLUElink/), the Australian Bureau of Meteorology has modified its pre-existing operational regional 1/4 degree resolution optimal interpolation SST analysis system to produce 1/12 degree resolution, daily SST analyses over the Australian region (20N - 70S, 60E - 170W). The new Regional Australian Multi-Sensor SST Analysis (RAMSSA) v1.0 system combines SST data from infrared (AVHRR and AATSR) and microwave (AMSR-E) sensors on polar-orbiting satellites with in situ measurements from the GTS to produce daily foundation SST estimates, largely free of nocturnal cooling and diurnal warming effects.
