Based on data

External Data Spec Mediterranean Sea - High Resolution L4 Sea Surface Temperature Reprocessed For the Mediterranean Sea- the CNR has reprocessed Pathfinder V5.2 (PFV52) AVHRR data over period Nov 1981-Dec 2012 to provide with daily gap-free maps (L4) at the original PFV52 resolution at 0.0417° x 0.0417°. The data are interpolated through an Optimal Interpolation algorithm.
External Data Spec HadISST - Global sea ice and Sea Surface Temperature analyses Global SST fields were created using a variety of techniques including Reduced Space Optimal Interpolation (RSOI). Sea ice concentration fields from different sources were analysed to make them as consistent as possible through time. Some care should be taken when using the sea-ice concentration data, particularly in the Southern Hemisphere where there is no realistic interannual variability in sea ice prior to 1973. The HadISST1 data set has been shown to be an improvement upon (and has superseded) the GISST data set.
