The core of NOAA Coral Reef Watch's decision support system for coral reef management is now (as of August 1, 2018) its daily global 5-km (0.05 degree) satellite coral bleaching heat stress monitoring product suite. In the latest version (Version 3.1 or v3.1), the products span January 1, 1985 to the present, and include: Sea Surface Temperature (SST, a.k.a. CoralTemp), SST Anomaly (SSTA), Coral Bleaching HotSpot, coral bleaching Degree Heating Week (DHW), a single-day Bleaching Alert Area, a 7-day maximum Bleaching Alert Area, and a 7-day SST Trend. Year-to-date (for the current year), monthly, and annual composites of the SST, SSTA, Coral Bleaching HotSpot, DHW, and Bleaching Alert Area products are also included. File formats provided are netCDF and PNG.

Supplemental Information
In this accession, NCEI has archived multiple versions of these data. The latest (and best) version of these data has the largest version number.
Purpose The NOAA Coral Reef Watch program seeks to fully utilize space-based sea surface temperature (SST) observations combined with in-situ data to continually monitor for early indications of thermally-induced coral reef bleaching worldwide. A suite of monitoring and predicting products, including this satellite SST Anomaly product, has been developed by CRW as a decision support system to provide critical and timely coral reef environment information to the U.S. and international coral reef communities.
