Brief description

Sea surface temperature images (SST) from Advanced High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data from the NOAA polar-orbiting satellites are combined with drifter buoy data to create animations showing buoy movements on the changing SST field. The data are contained on one CDROM in Hobart.

Statement: Sea surface temperature (SST): The approximately twice daily NOAA Sea surface temperature images are a time series of data that is highly contaminated by cloud and other atmospheric effects. However by combining all the images over a period of 20 days and by looking at neighbouring pixels of each point a good estimate of the most likely uncontaminated temperature can be made. This reduces the approximately 40 megabytes of data over 20 days to one picture of about 0.1 megabytes.
