Sea Surface Temperature — data

Mean daily Sea Surface Temperature (°C) derived from 0.5° resolution imagery within bounding box (lon_min = -81, lon_max = -79.75, lat_min = 25.25, lat_max = 25.75).

Usage

data_sst

Format

## `data_sst` A data frame with 2,922 rows and two columns:

date: Date - Date of the observation, in yyyy-mm-dd format
temperature_C: Numeric - Mean sea surface temperatrure, measured in °C

Source

Raw data come from NOAA AVHRR Optimum Interpolation v2.1 - SST https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/ncdcOisst21Agg_LonPM180.html. The script to generate the data is https://github.com/jcvdav/EVR628tools/blob/main/data-raw/data_sst.R
