Sea Surface Temperature is a key climate and weather measurement used for weather prediction, ocean forecasts, tropical cyclone forecasts, and in coastal applications such as fisheries, pollution monitoring and tourism. El Niño and La Niña are two examples of climate events which are forecast through the use of sea surface temperature maps.
The Naval Oceanographic Office sea surface temperature dataset is calculated from satellite-based microwave and infrared imagery. These data are optimally interpolated to provide a daily, global map of the midday (12:00 pm) sea surface temperature.
This animated map was made using Esri's ArcGIS Pro, Cinema 4D, Redshift, and Adobe After Effects. Please visit http://ow.ly/fm2950xgu0B for more information about ArcGIS Pro.
