Monthly Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Climatology of the Canadian Pacific Exclusive Economic Zone (1981-2010) – 4 km Resolution

Monthly Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Climatology of the Canadian Pacific Exclusive Economic Zone (1981-2010) – 4 km Resolution AVHRR Pathfinder version 5.3 Level 3C night Sea Surface Temperature (SST) was acquired from NOAA at 4 km spatial resolution. The monthly mean value at all pixels was calculated for individual years, then all years were combined to produce final maps of monthly mean and monthly standard deviation of SST, and the number of occurrences of valid data at each pixel over the period of observation. The quality level of all satellite observations was also acquired with this dataset, and used to remove any pixels with a quality level lower than 4. Further, pixels with fewer than two occurrences over the period 1981-2010 were removed from these maps, and set to a NaN value in the tif files. All resulting rasters were cropped to the Canadian Exclusive Economic Zone and assigned to the NAD83 geographic coordinate reference system (EPSG:4269), and have a final pixel resolution of approximately 0.0417 degrees. The monthly mean, monthly standard deviation, and number of occurrences for all pixels are provided. 2024-02-15 Fisheries and Oceans Canada Charles.Hannah@dfo-mpo.gc.ca Nature and EnvironmentScience and TechnologyClimatologyClimateOceans Data DictionaryHTML https://pacgis01.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/FGPPublic/Monthly_Satellite_SST_Climatoloty_CPEEZ/Data_Dictionary_EN_FR_Monthly_satellite_SST_climatology_of_the_CPEEZ_1981-2010.htm ReferencesHTML https://pacgis01.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/FGPPublic/Monthly_Satellite_SST_Climatoloty_CPEEZ/References_EN_FR_Monthly_satellite_SST_climatology_of_the_CPEEZ_1981-2010.htm Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Monthly Mean 1981-2010 - 4km resolution - GeoTIFGeoTIF https://pacgis01.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/FGPPublic/Monthly_Satellite_SST_Climatoloty_CPEEZ/SST_4km_1981_2010_monthly_mean_tif_files.zip Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Monthly Standard Deviation 1981-2010 - 4km resolution - GeoTIFGeoTIF https://pacgis01.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/FGPPublic/Monthly_Satellite_SST_Climatoloty_CPEEZ/SST_4km_1981_2010_monthly_stdev_tif_files.zip Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Monthly Number of Occurrences 1981-2010 - 4km resolution - GeoTIFGeoTIF https://pacgis01.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/FGPPublic/Monthly_Satellite_SST_Climatoloty_CPEEZ/SST_4km_1981_2010_monthly_numtotal_tif_files.zip Monthly Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Climatology of the Canadian Pacific Exclusive Economic Zone (1990-2020) - 4 km ResolutionHTML https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/a67df54b-286d-4eb6-9b38-474f1efe86db Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Monthly Mean 1981-2010 - 4km resolutionESRI REST https://gisp.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/FGP/Monthly_Satellite_Sea_Surface_Temperature_Pacific_EEZ_1981_2010/MapServer Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Monthly Mean 1981-2010 - 4km resolutionESRI REST https://gisp.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/FGP/Monthly_Satellite_Sea_Surface_Temperature_Pacific_EEZ_1981_2010/MapServer Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Monthly Mean 1981-2010 - 4km resolution - PNGPNG https://pacgis01.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/FGPPublic/Monthly_Satellite_SST_Climatoloty_CPEEZ/SST_4km_1981_2010_monthly_mean_png_files.zip Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Monthly Standard Deviation 1981-2010 - 4km resolution - PNGPNG https://pacgis01.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/FGPPublic/Monthly_Satellite_SST_Climatoloty_CPEEZ/SST_4km_1981_2010_monthly_stdev_png_files.zip Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Monthly Number of Occurrences 1981-2010 - 4km resolution - PNGPNG https://pacgis01.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/FGPPublic/Monthly_Satellite_SST_Climatoloty_CPEEZ/SST_4km_1981_2010_monthly_numtotal_png_files.zip Monthly Satellite Sea Surface Temperature Climatology of the Canadian Pacific Exclusive Economic Zone (2003-2020) - 1 km ResolutionHTML https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/ecca47d7-835b-419f-91ae-ae4f601070a3
