Composite images of satellite-derived sea surface temperatures (SST,
degrees Celsius) for the Western Atlantic and Eastern Pacific. SST is
calculated from GOES infrared satellite data. Composites are an average
of 5 days of hourly images (a total of 120 frames). Areas with no valid data
over the 5 days are shown in black.
The Enhanced fields use dynamic colorbar settings which allow higher resolution for regions with small ranges in temperature.
Blue areas in the Age and Numbers fields show most recent data and greatest quantity of data, respectively.
